Gifted Service

We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. – Romans 12:6a

Last night we enjoyed a wonderful time as we gathered to celebrate the gifts of our church at the annual Gifted Service.  There were singers, instrumentalists, readings, beautiful crafts and art, delicious bake goods and a Spirit filled time of singing and praise.  It was exciting to see the unique and special gifts that each had to share from young to old.

All these gifts were a testament to the greatness of God.  In God’s creative plan he did not make us all the same, instead he created us all uniquely and different in our own way.  The diversity in God’s creation is what makes life interesting and enjoyable.  We can praise God that we all have unique gifts that make us special and that can be used in different ways to serve in his Kingdom.     

Prayer:  Thank you Lord for making me special.  Thank you for the gifts that I have been given according to your grace.  Help me to find ways to use these gifts to serve your Kingdom.  Amen.

Faith Tip:  What gifts make you special?  How can you use those gifts in the service of the Lord?  Use your gifts to bring glory to God today.
