God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
We are programmed for failure if we're looking for ultimate answers in a non-ultimate realm, a realm that's partial, fragmented, incomplete. We end up worshiping the creation rather than the Creator. We can do that as believers. The total answer is a Person, Jesus Christ. It's part of God's program to make us dissatisfied with what the temporal realm offers, so that we might seek life in Him.
If God has called someone to ministry He will provide the grace to meet the qualifications for it. The biblical criteria for those in church leadership pertain not only to intellectual and theological skills but also to character, with an emphasis on moral and spiritual maturity. Any effort aimed at identifying those called to church leadership and providing encouragement to them must entail appropriate steps at character development [according to 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1].
I have people who swear that their cholesterol has been dramatically
lowered after drinking one-quarter cup of this every morning (day) for a

streets in Florida people love it. We have made some and have decided that
even though it doesn't taste so great, we'll get by that and see if
anything does happen.
