God shows His love for women a lot by opening them up so they can have children. I guess that's a big thing because women were expected to solely bear children and take care of the house back then.
Both Leah and Rachel were barren. I don't know if Jacob knew that or not, but he still loved Rachel, and worked for her for basically 14 years of his life.
So it's like God loves us even though we're not useful yet, but just because of who we are, then when we step into a relationship with him, he unleashes our potential and works through us to bring His kingdom.
Unleashed potential...isn't that like physics stuff? An object has so much potential but none of it is used unless the object has a source that sets it in motion or brings it into contact with another object.
God is that catalyst. When he touches our hearts, our potential is unleashed, and we are overwhelmed by his love and his works. We're set in motion to do whatever it is we're supposed to do.
So the question isn't, "Why isn't God using me?" or "why isn't my potential being released?". I think it's, "Am I fully allowing Jesus to set me in motion?"
..I never thought i'd ever think about things i learned in high school physics ever again. Study hard, kids!
