God has given each of us unique gifts. Sometimes along with the blessing of the gifts we have received from God, we can begin to feel pressure from other people to use them. A wise believer once told me that even though God wants us to use our gifts, He never says we have to use them all at once. Trying to do that would surely be overwhelming!
Let me encourage you to take the time this week to read two chapters that help us see the connection between our gifts and the most excellent way to use them. In 1 Corinthians 12, Paul tells us about spiritual gifts, and then in Chapter 13, he gives us the familiar verses on love, the most excellent way. So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love (1 Corinthians 13:13). Read also Romans 12:6-8.
The Time is NOW to be in God’s Word. The Time is NOW to discover your spiritual gifts and then to use them in Christian love as God gives the opportunity!
