                                ACTION PLAN
                                God can work through you and me just as He worked through
                                Charles  and  Lettie  Cowman.  God  wants  to  lead  you  to  the
                                place  He  has  for  you  on  this  earth.  Love  Him  with  all  your
                                heart. Read His Word and listen to His voice. Obey what He
                                asks you to do. We can be good and useful people for God.

                                VERSE TO MEMORIZE
                                The LORD gave me this message. “I knew you before I formed
                                you  in your  mother’s  womb. Before you  were  born I set you
                                apart  and  appointed  you  as  my  prophet  to  the  nations.”
                                —Jeremiah 1:4–5

                                TALK TO GOD
                                Charles Cowman wrote this prayer on the inside of his Bible
                                on his first journey to Japan in 1901. Read the prayer, and ask
                                God to make you that person.
                                “The world is waiting yet to see what God can do through a
                                consecrated  soul.  Not  the  world  alone,  but  God  Himself  is
                                waiting for one who would be more devoted to Him than any
                                who have ever lived; … There is no limit to what God can do
                                with a man, providing he does not touch the glory.”
