When we dedicate our lives to the Lord, we find that He is able to do far more with them than we can ever do with them. Like the young lad who gave his lunch of five loaves and two fish to the Lord, He is able to take our apparently meagre means and multiply them beyond our imagination for His glory and the blessing of others. Priscilla and Aquila were, humanly speaking, nothing special. But they devoted themselves to God in response to His saving grace, and God worked wonders through them. Every Christian is enjoined to do likewise – where we are, with what we have, to the glory of God. ‘I appeal to you therefore brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship’ (Romans 12:1).
