wow..was looking for where gideon was in the bible and wow.holy spirit just...helped me..i was like flip flip flip..and it was judges 6 = GIDEON

God used someone who was a scaredy cat (hidding to thesh wheat, afraid to be found out by the Midianites--god's enemies)

God calls him a mighty man of valor! (queer ah how God thinks...so diff from us)

The Angel of the Lord says : THE Lord is WITH YOU! (wow..can u imagine God appearing to you like that..he sits under the banana tree at your house (for those who dunt have banana trees just imagine cos i have), the HE appears to you and says these words...

gideon goes: huh? nothing is happening! in fact things r getting worse..sounds familiar?less pple coming to contribute, participate.....he says WHERE r all HIS miracles?

Gideon goes but who am I? im from the weakest clan (singapore version is : im from the weakest province in southern china!), least in my father's house (WOW..IM the youngest in the family! i cant even drive...stil praying for God to allow them to allow me to learn)....Gideon going WHO AM I?sounds doubly familiar..had this one day that the devil kept going "who r u? to carry this great vision?...stil remember it was a thurs last sem..just b4 midterm break"

but God says SURELY I am with you
God assures, isnt HE great?

and God spoke to me abt Gideon's valiant 300
judges 7:2 the Lord said to Gideon, the people who r with you r too many for me to give the midianites into yr hands, lest isreal claim glory for itself, saying MY own hand has saved me...

Parellel...my dwindling numbers seem to speak something..he is choosing those whom he will use to bring the vision to pass, not everyone wil have a share in it..
only those 300 out of 32000
WOW! thats like 0.9375%..over here i got more than that..amen? so far lets c...
approx 7 out of 33 thats 21%
