The Tool Box

I want you to think of a tool box. What’s in that tool box? Well, there should be tools. But there are different tools. There’s a hammer to pound nails into a wall. There’s a couple screwdrivers to twist screws into a wall. There’s a few boxes of nails and screws to go into a wall. There are wrenches and maybe a blade. My point is that every tool is different. They each have their own job, and they can't do anything but that job. A hammer can't put screws in a wall. A screwdriver couldn't push a nail into a wall. But no matter what their job is, they all work for the person who owns them. They can't do anything without him. They must be held in the owner's hands before they can accomplish their purpose.

It's the same with us. Every Christian is part of the "tool box" of God. We all have a job to do, and no one can do our job for us. But we can't even begin to accomplish our jobs until we are held in the Creator's hands. When He holds us, we can do anything. We are the tools of God. Let's act like it.

"Woe to him who quarrels with his Maker... Does the clay say to the potter, 'What are you making?' Does your work say, 'He has no hands'?"
Isaiah 45:9

"I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener."
John 15:1
