~~~ Romans 12:5-16AB ~~~ Psalm 131 ~~~ Luke 14:15-24 ~~~
...we have gifts that differ
according to the grace given to us...
We though many, are one Body in Christ.
Each of us is an important part
of the living functional Body of Christ.
God did not just randomly give you a special gift or talent.
He fashioned your gift exactly for you.
Then along with that gift he infused
you with his grace.
It is this grace that allows you to succeed best
when you are exercising your gift.
It is the grace that drives you to be
convinced of your gifts.
It is the grace that encourages you to be
the best that you can be in your field.
It is the grace that gives you the courage to give
one hundred percent to your career.
Be the best that you can be;
it is possible through his grace.
Let love be sincere;
hate what is evil,
hold on to what is good;
love one another with mutual affection;
anticipate one another in showing honor.
Use your gifts to make the world a better place.
Use you gifts to spread the joy of salvation.
Use your gifts where it is difficult...when
you would rather be passive.
Rejoice in hope...
Persevere in prayer...
Do not grow slack in zeal.
You cannot be part of the Body of Christ
if you are like a hang nail.
The Body of Christ is to be the source of all grace
The source of all spiritual energy.
The Body of Christ is where we learn
to love one another with mutual affection.
Since we are all part of the Body of Christ
it is there where we can find true rest and peace.
God's grace reflects among all of us
when we exercise our gifts.
When we exercise our gifts the Body
becomes more brilliant.
The more brilliant the better
we can hold on to what is good.
Blessings of grace to develop
your gifts to their full potential,
~~~Peace~~~
