Your gifts

What do we mean by ‘gifts’?

We talk about a brilliant musician or actor, we speak of gifted children, but we often find it difficult to see our own gifts or talents, and not everyone finds it easy to see them in others.

Yet we use such language every day when we describe people as gentle or compassionate, practical or humorous, good listeners or communicators, or a behind the scenes 'get on and do it' kind of person.

Each one of us has been gifted in some way by God. Our gifts make us who we are and it is these that God calls us to use in his service.

Do you have opportunities to use the gifts and talents you have?  Are there areas of your life that might be changed to enable you to use gifts and skills yet unseen or underdeveloped?
