“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. 11 If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.”
1 Peter 4:10-11 NIV
As God’s creation, each of us has been blessed and have God-given gifts and abilities
It is up to us to learn about and use the spiritual gifts God has given to us
We are blessed to be a blessing to others
What gifts has God given you?
What can you offer or provide to others in your family, your neighborhood or your faith community?
If you are unsure about your gifts, turn towards God in prayer and ask Him to help you to see

“We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your[a] faith; 7 if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; 8 if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead,[b] do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully.”
Romans 12:6-8 NIV
