Everyone Loves Gifts!

Hey, Guys! I’m so glad to be back. I feel refreshed and rejuvenated from my vacation. I praise God that I was able to sit back for a second and take a breath. Now, it’s back to the grindstone.

As the holidays spring upon us, a lot of us will be taking trips to the mall and scouring the internet in order to purchase gifts for our family and friends. We will endure packed stores and long lines just for the joy of showing someone love.

Our Heavenly Father also has given us gifts. We like to talk about the Best Gift He offered in His Son, but God has also blessed everyone with individual gifts as well. We all have talents that are unique to ourselves. Each one of us has something to offer the world that only we can do. It’s so amazing to me that as we continue to grow and mature, we still discover hidden gifts and talents that we didn’t even know we had!

If you’re someone who thinks they have no special gifts – you’re wrong! Ask the Holy Spirit to show you what gifts you got. You weren’t left out.

Take a moment to think about those special gifts and talents that God has given you. Give Him praise for making you unique! I would encourage you to figure out a way to offer those gifts back to God.

If you can sing, sing a song of praise and worship to Him. If you write, write a poem or story highlighting His goodness. If you are a giver, find a way to give to His Kingdom. If you are an encourager, find someone to encourage in the Lord. The best way to thank God for His gifts is to use them for His glory.

Verse of the Day: I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. Psalm 139:14
