What does God use to accomplish His purpose? Anything we will give Him, but He especially delights in using small things:

A shepherd's rod (Exodus 4:2)

Five smooth stones (I Samuel 17:40)

A handful of meal (I Kings 17:12)

A little jar of oil (II King7s 4:2)

A small cloud (I Kings 18:44)

A little man (Zechariah 4:10)

A mustard seed (Matthew 13:32)

Five loaves and two fishes (John 6:9)

God will use us if we only make ourselves available to Him.
