Be strategic in the use of your gift today

Don't neglect the gift that's inside of you.

We all have various gifts inside of us. But we also have a responsibility to use those gifts. Don't neglect it.

It is so easy to forget about your gift, lay it aside and stay busy with other things. But you suffer and everyone else does too when you don't use your gift.

Encouragement may be your gift. It's one of mine. I remember years ago when I was still leading worship. The Lord spoke to me on the way to church: "Be strategic in the use of your gift today." I knew He was talking about my gift of encouragement. As I was leading worship my eyes scanned across the congregation and I spotted a particular person whom I sensed needed some encouragement. After the service I went up to them and asked how they were doing. They responded and my gift started working. I started encouraging them and they walked out that day having been blessed.

Don't neglect the gift that's inside of you.

Do what you do well and do it often.

God has blessings in store for you and
God has blessings in store for others in you.

Blogging may be one of my gifts, sorry for neglecting it.

Love ya
