If you keep yourself pure, you will be a utensil God can use for his purpose. Your life will be clean, and you will be ready for the Master to use you for every good work. 2 Timothy 2:21 NLV
I remember when my daughter first began using her tiny plastic utensils to eat like a 'big girl'. Often she missed her mouth completely or catapulted food across the kitchen. Thankfully our Heavenly Father is more proficient at utilizing what he's gifted us with. In the context of reaching out to others this could mean encouragement, listening, extending support or showing kindness by serving. We all know a mom who would be truly blessed if we became a better utensil for the Lord. Whether you are a spoon or a spork, let the Lord cradle you in his hand as he guides you to the needs of moms around you.
utensil (noun): any instrument, or tool serving a useful purpose.
