God's outrageous grace
Heroes are everywhere but what makes someone a hero? In today’s passage, we get to see that God doesn’t use heroes. The person God uses in Isaiah 53 is disregarded and despised. Not the sort of person we would choose to save the world. But God has always been in the habit of working through weak and unremarkable people. He does this to show that it is His power that makes us great, not our own efforts. We do not have to be good enough for God - He can use us no matter who we are, where we come from, or what abilities we have.
Scripture References: Isaiah 53:1-6, 1 Corinthians 1:26-31, Matthew 8:14-17
