God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another. – 1 Peter 4:10 (NLT)
Have you ever gotten a birthday gift that came with instructions? Let’s say you got a box of Lego. Those Lego could be used for all kinds of things. You could throw them at your little sister or used as decorations for your room. However, when Lego was created, it was intended for a specific purpose. And that’s why instructions came with the box you got for your birthday.
In the same way, God has given you instructions for your giftings. He asks us to use them to serve others. You can serve by complimenting a friend or helping someone in need. That’s just one way of many that you can use what you’re naturally gifted in to help someone else.
So today, ask God for help. Ask Him to show you creative ways you can use your giftings. You could be surprised at the things He shows you. Don’t be afraid to walk out what He tells you. Choose to use your gifts to serve others and see what God does through you!
