March 23, 2009 - Are You Gifted?

Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; 
and there are varieties of working, but it is the same God who inspires them all in every one. 
To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 

when i look at myself, i dont see anything special. just another normal, plain person. if there is a gift, i have not found it yet. but it is true that God has given everyone something whether you realize or not. in genesis, man was made in God's image. in this proposition, man was made in the image of God; God is perfect; therefore it is impossible for man not to have gifts from being made in the image of a perfect Creator. 

but whatever gifts that we have and that i have, it is ultimately for God because it was given to us. dont even compare it to others because whatever your gift is, it can be used by God. in His eyes, everyone is of equal importance in what they can do for His kingdom. 

messing up all the time and recieving so much love regardless as well as having these gifts from the Lord; how can i not praise Him. 

Amen.
