Here is a truth for us to ponder: Come to Me as you are!! Jesus said 'Come to Me.' He did not qualify the call. Your flesh man wants you to think that God needs you whole and well. In fact, it could be that our desire to be whole and well (our qualification) may restrict God from being able to use us without limitation. Am I saying that God does not want us whole and well? No!
