If someone asked you, “What is the one thing you do best?” What would you say?

If someone asked you, “What is the one thing you do best?” What would you say? I make beautiful things, I paint, I garden, I drive a car, I fly an aircraft, I teach others, I am a good parent, a good spouse, a writer, I am a gifted speaker, a good listener, I am a great cook, a caregiver, a leader, a doctor, a nurse, a lawyer, an electrician, I am a great salesman, I can fix anything, I am a great athletic. We all have gifts; they are what you are good at. These gifts are gifts from God. God gave them to you when you were born. Next question, “Do you use your gifts or do you waste them away. Are you grateful for your gifts or do you take them for granted? God has given each and every one of us gifts to use and share. The key is to use them to Glorify God in all things. Sometimes we forget this and do not use the very gifts God has given us. 1 Peter 4:10 reads, “As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace.” It is something to remember. God Bless. Amen.
