As a Child of God, it’s imperative to recognize the divine gifts bestowed upon you. Whether you are fully aware or yet to discover them, rest assured, you possess a unique gift. It could manifest as the ability to prophesy, serve others, teach, provide encouragement, give generously, lead, or show mercy. Beyond the specific gifts mentioned in Romans 12, I am convinced that God grants additional gifts to believers.

The significance lies not only in acknowledging your gift but also in being intentional about using it diligently. Embracing your role as a bearer of God’s gifts means actively employing them to serve others and, in doing so, glorifying God. It’s a journey of self-discovery and purposeful contribution to the well-being of those around you, ultimately reflecting the magnificence of the divine gifts within you.
