Using Our Gifts

As we go through life whether young or old, knowing our gifts and talents are first and foremost to developing them. Gods' word says we are uniquely made and that we all have gifts and talents to be used for his glory.

Now if you are like me, I always thought that meant they had to be used in the church. Well through the years I have learned that my witness for Christ happens every moment, especially when I think no one is looking. When we embrace who we are in Christ Jesus and let him work through us, then everyday our lives are a testament to his love, joy and happiness that is not measured in worldly goods, or achievements, but through Christ alone!

I have recently accepted a teaching post in a village in South India called Kodaikanal starting in July. It is the culmination of a lot of preparation and desire to serve. Though it is nowhere near where I thought I would be, it is "spot on" for who God made me to be. Blessed and awed again for his supernatural provision and blessing in my life and my family. We are all called to serve and be a blessing to those around us, using our unique gifts and talents that God has placed in us.
May you be inspired and challenged to look depth within and see where your India is today?
