Each of you should use whatever gift
you have received to serve others.
—1 Peter 4:10
I often think of people I’ve known who have used their gifts to bless others.
I think of Don. He was a dud at public speaking, but a genius at defusing disagreements. He used what he was good at to bless others.
I think of Roxie. She was shy, but the best cook in the county. Hundreds were blessed by her culinary generosity. She used what she was good at to bless others.
I think of Gladys. She was small of body, but large at encouragement. She used what she was good at to bless others.
I think of you. One thing I know about you is that God made you good at something. Another thing I know about you is that you know if you are or aren’t using what you’re good at to bless others.
Serve God by serving others.
