So, you are not a Talented Harpist, Gifted Communicator, or Respected Surgeon? But have People commented that you are a natural of Cross-Country Skiing, Landscape Painting, or Computer Repairs? Do you even remember when you learned to be a Stenographer, Mechanic, or Carpenter? Are you an Incurable Inventor, an Avid Researcher, or a Party Planner Par Excellence?
Do you wonder why GOD gave you the Gift of Thinking Clearly under pressure or of having a Photographic Memory? Have you Mastered a Foreign Language or discovered that you have a Special Ability in an Area like Music, Dance, Graphics, Problem Solving, Marketing, or Supervising People? We must Inspire others to make Powerful, Positive Choices that will Transform their Lives.
We can Encourage others through Biblical Insights and Real~Life Examples, to show People how to put Life's Trials into a Heavenly Perspective, by Facing each New Challenge with Grace and Setting their Sights on Eternity. We must be clear about our Life's Current Purpose: To bring New HOPE to those in seemingly Hopeless Situations and to Encourage them to Develop a Closeness with GOD, by * Trusting Him Fully. *
We can Impact Principles and Techniques to Motivate people to TAKE ACTION!
"Some of our Abilities are GOD~GIVEN from birth and others are Learned over many years of Diligent Practice. When we Commit them All Totally to the Lord, asking Him Daily ~ to Guide our Every Step in using them, we find True Satisfaction."
A MAN WAS GIVEN A TALENT
(In New Testament times, a Talent was the Largest Unit of Silver, with an Approximate Monetary Value of One Ox.) JESUS told a Parable using a Metaphor about a Man who was Rebuked by his Master for burying his Talent. Read Matthew 25:14 ~ 30. Today, let's extend the Metaphor to include your Natural Talents and Acquired Skills. What would JESUS say to you? Are you using your Talents and Skills Wisely or are you burying them?
SCRIPTURE TO PONDER
Then the LORD said . . . "And I have filled him with the
Spirit of GOD, with Skill, Ability and Knowledge
in all Kinds of Crafts."
(Exodus 31:1, 3)
So . . . What Insight, Prayer, or Action Step Has GOD Laid on Your Heart Today?
