GROW YOUR TALENT

Are you happy with who you are? Many people are not, and they live in pain and misery all the time because they feel like they’re stuck with themselves. Well, I want to tell you that who you are is not an accident or a mistake. God made you and He does all things well. If you’re not happy with who you are, you’re probably not happy with where you are spiritually. That’s not such a bad thing! You should always endeavor to grow spiritually…from glory to glory, right! Each believer has been given definite and recognizable gifts or talents, which are to be used in serving the Lord and to bring edification to Him.

Once you recognize how God has gifted you, then accept that role you’ve been given with great joy. The things God has
gifted you to do are the things that make you the happiest and bring the most satisfaction. When you use your gifts, God gives you more. So, accept the talents and gifts God has invested in you, and then set out to grow them as much as possible. You’ll discover that God is true to His word and He will increase your gifts when you use what you have. Accept your gifts – never settle; use them and get more.

He also who had received two talents came and said, ‘Lord, you delivered to me two talents; look, I have gained two more talents besides them.’ ²³ His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

 Matthew 25:22-23 (NKJV)
