As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace. —1 Peter 4:10 ESV
It’s been my experience that when it comes to spiritual gifts, most of us fall into one of two categories. Either we don’t know what our gifts are, or we’re waiting for someone to give us permission to use them.
I’ve made it one of my missions in life to help Christians know their gifts and then use them to have an impact on God’s kingdom. This is the category I want to live in every day of my life and where I want you to live too. Because your gifts belong to me. And my gifts belong to you. Paul teaches us this concept with a powerful word picture of the Body of Christ found in 1 Corinthians 12.
When you use your gifts, it benefits me. When I use my gifts, it benefits you. And when we don’t, the whole Body suffers. You’ve got God-given gifts. Get busy using them! It’s one way you can choose to love the “one anothers.”
