The Giver

The Good News Today Is...we can trust the Giver more than the gifts. We have all been given gifts of the spirit. Some are to be teachers, some are to be encouragers, some to be evangelists...whatever your gift is..don't become too dependent upon it. The gifts we have are meant to be used for the glory of God. We are not to become so wrapped up in the gift and all we think we can accomplish with it, that we forget that we need God every moment of every day. It is through our need of God and our recognition of that, our gifts become truly powerful for His kingdom. Don't worry about trying to use your gift and do everything you can with it. Over volunteering for church functions because you have the gift they need can lead you to burn out. Look to God the Giver of the gift and seek to glorify Him. That's all you have to do, you can trust the Giver to do the rest.
