What God does with a mess

If you have ever caused one, know someone who might be considered one, or your life seems to always be one…
Be encouraged to know that God is in the business of taking a mess and making it into a message.
The Bible tells us we go through things so that we can find victory and comfort in that situation through Jesus.  And then, after we have been comforted, He uses our experience to comfort others through us.
The man who went too far down the wrong road to addiction… and found freedom in Christ… his mess can become a message to someone about to take that same wrong turn.
The single father who wants more time with his children, and finds that showing them the love he never had before gets him all the time he wants… his mess can become  a message.
No matter where you have been, where you are now, what you have done… or maybe what you are still doing…
Let God take your mess and make it into a message.
And remember this… the bigger the mess…
The bigger the message.
