You Don't Need to Be More Ready Than You Already Are | Exodus 4:2 | 5-Min Daily Devotional | Thursday 23 April 2026

Have you ever felt like you're waiting for permission to be useful - like God is holding off until you become something better? The stories of Moses and Peter suggest something radically different: God doesn't start with your potential. He starts with what's already in your hands.

In this 5-minute devotional, we're on Day 4 of Called to Be a Disciple - walking through the life of Peter and discovering what it means to be called right where you are.

What you'll take away:

- Why God asked Moses "what is that in your hand?" - and what it means for you
- How Jesus called Peter through his fishing - not away from it
- Why your calling redeems your history rather than erasing it
- What the hymn "Take My Life" reveals about offering the ordinary
- One simple, honest prayer you can pray today
