It's Time to Use Your Spiritual Gift!

Isn't it awesome to know God has a gift for you!  He wants to fill you, equip you and use you. Not for your glory but for His. All you have to do is find your gift, develop it and use it!   

If you are already using your Spirit given, Spirit driven and Spirit lovin gift then you are right in the center of His will for you.  If NOT...don't put off learning and implementing this invaluable teaching.  You can't use "it" if you don't know "it".

Last week we focused on the Team Gifts; this week we will learn how our personality plays a part in where we use "it" and how we use "it".

We only have a few more weeks to go...let's finish strong!

For further study:  A "GIFTS DESCRIPTION CHART" which includes scripture references and other information you might find helpful.  Hey, this is important stuff...spend time learning and digesting it for your own growth.  Use "it" or lose "it".  Seriously!

GOD GIVES GIFTS

Don't you just love the fact that God has given us gifts. These aren't the earthly gifts that he has bestowed on everyone but these are Spiritual Gifts that are only for those who receive His Spirit by receiving Jesus as Savior. There are those in the body who don't know what their gifts are or if they do know they don't know what to do with them. That is where this study comes shining through. 

These next few Thursdays we are embarking on a journey of discovery and adventure seeking to discover the special gift or gifts God has chosen just for you.   This is a very important study...without this knowledge you may spend lots of time and energy trying to engage where you aren't gifted.  It is a journey of discovery and joy as you realize how much God has invested in you.  He wants to use you! These are powerful words as it gives us something to hope for and something to do in the body of Christ.

Learning about your personality can be a release and freeing experience.  It will help you to overcome your angst about who you are - for God does not make mistakes.  So your DNA was designed purposefully just for you. Are you feeling loved and special?  Well dear friend you are both of those things...so check out the info Tom gave to you and get started on that journey.  I for one can't wait till we get the results.  Tick-Tock!

There were some new pdf's added to the blog so check those out if you need to.  See you Thursday at the Gillespie's.  Keep all in your prayers.  Michael, we are excited about your trip and can't wait for your return and can't wait to hear about all that happened in Abu Dhabi,  (take pictures).
