Reflections

God gives us gifts. God gives us natural gifts which we have to develop in our lifetime. It may be a giftedness in music, or writing, or in speaking, analysing, in leading, etc.

God also gives spiritual gifts when we first come to Christ. These often add upon our natural giftedness. God gives gifts along the way through prayer or impartation. 1 Timothy 4:14 (NIV) Do not neglect your gift, which was given you through a prophetic message when the body of elders laid their hands on you.

God gives to every believer giftedness, so that we may effectively serve the church. One of the keys is to recognise what God has gifted you. Do you know what yours are?
