Uncommon Use

By Max Lucado

“He gives
grace to the humble.”  James 4:6

Heaven may have a shrine to honor God’s uncommon use of the common.

It’s a place you won’t want to miss. Stroll through and see Rahab’s
rope, Paul’s bucket, David’s sling, and Samson’s jawbone. Wrap your hand
around the staff that split the sea and smote the rock. Sniff the
ointment that soothed Jesus’ skin and lifted his heart . . .

I don’t know if these items will be there. But I am sure of one
thing—the people who used them will.
