You’re Gifts and Abilities

It is true that God is so good that he gives each and everyone of us gifts/abilities
Our own unique special “thing/things” that only we can do or achieve
That “thing” that separates and distinguishes us from every other human being
But the real question is are you using it for Gods ultimate glory

There’s no question that God is truly patient, that he loves you eternally
Even if you don’t work for him, he blesses you with every good thing freely
Even though you may be working for the enemy, he continues to bestow His mercy
Even though you curse him and then bless Him, he doesn’t take your gift from you

God really is phenomenal, as he has the power to take what he has given to you
But he doesn’t, but he waits patiently for you to wake up and realise that he is true
For you to appreciate that without Him you wouldn’t be able to do what you do
To repent and give it all unto him, and say Lord my abilities are all for you

The world is enticing and calls you to use you gifts/abilities for it
Because it will make you rich and fast, giving you the fame and fortunes of this earth
Making you forget that all silver and gold belong to the Lord and not the world
So if you use it for the Lord he will meet your every need as well as build up your soul

In the Lord there is more to gain as he reins forever and is deserving of your praises
Don’t let the devil have the last laugh as you use you special gift and alibility for him
But let the Lord use you and give back to Him what he gave to you, and stop the carnage
And you will be amazed by your destiny as it unfolds before you, but now in the Lords hands

Whatever you are able to do, be it producing, singing, dancing, teaching or writing,
Basically any form of art, science or business, should be used to lift His name higher
So no one is left out of the loop who shouldn’t be glorifying the creator of everything
As everything that has breath should praise the Lord and confess that Jesus Christ is our Saviour
