On the call to ministry, a title longer than the actual rumination, or at least, almost longer

Short Skype conversation with a good buddy of mine. Young man, old soul, big enthusiasm. He mentions (and has mentioned before) his desire towards ministry. It leads me to thinking aloud, about how though we know our sins, God knows the depths of them. Though we are broken, crass, impatient, bent towards leading away, God, in all his mercy and grace, leads us ever toward himself. AND he still deigns to use us for his glory!

Are we not much more than broken instruments made to make a symphony? What a weight for those of us with that call towards ministry. What a joy for all believers, that Jesus saves.
