God uses all of our experiences for His glory-good, bad, & ugly. Our part-complete surrender to Him. Trying to amputate our past or holding back any part will not allow God's full glory to be revealed. We often see our lives as having little or no value for God to use. He makes something from nothing. God makes what we see-nothing-into something. Let Him make something of you; give ALL of yourself to Him today! 9/2012CIFL-LMM
