Do What You Can!

     There is a lot Lydia can’t do. But she does what she can do, like chopping up veggies.

    There are things I would like to do that I can’t do. Good things. Things for God. Dreams.

    This verse struck me. “She hath done what she could.” I need to do what I can do. Maybe one day God will open different doors. But today I need to focus on and do what I can do today. And there’s a whole lot I CAN do!

    What about you? Are you doing what you CAN do? Are you using the opportunities that God has given you right now? Are you using the abilities you do have? Are you reading the Bible and praying? That’s something you CAN do!

    May it be said of me, “She has done what she could.”

        November is Global Bible Month!

        The YouVersion Bible App is celebrating over one billion installs across its Family of Apps this November. As we’ve prepared as an organization for this milestone, we constantly say, “This is more than a milestone. This is a moment to celebrate God’s Word.” Because that’s exactly what it is! Over centuries, God’s Word has taken many different forms—from ancient scrolls to bound pages to an app on a screen.
