YOUR GIFTS AND TALENTS

You are responsible for managing your gifts and talents. No matter how small or insignificant you think your gift or talent is, it’s important you  put them in good use because GOD gave them to you knowing how significant, important, unique and special they are, as well as the fulfilment that comes with using them in full capacity and bringing glory to God.

Now I’m going to share with you some of my favourite inspirational quotes by some people I admire, on talents and gifts.

Use your talent (everybody has one) in any way you can. Don’t keep it for yourself like a miser. Spend it like a millionaire. – Lucy MacDonald

True happiness involves the full use of one’s power and talents.- John W. Gardner

Our gifts are a part of God’s purpose for us.- Janice Elsheimer

How powerful are these quotes?

Many times, people wonder if they do have any talent or gift at all to share with their world. They are not sure if it will make any difference at all when put in use, and the fear of being laughed at or made fun of keep them imprisoned for life- one of the reasons people end up unfulfilled.

I want you to know that your talent and gift were specifically given to you because God knew and still knows they will not only improve your world, but they will bring you fulfilment too.

What if I have the same talent just as the other fellow over there? You may ask. Every talent has its uniqueness, and because you a unique individual, your own style, approach and ways of utilizing your own talents and gifts must definitely be different from that fellow next door. Take for instance, there are way too many pop stars out there, but when you narrow your speciality to the type of music you love and the success stories of most pop stars, you will agree with me although they all sing similar songs, they’ve all got their individual style, voice, mannerism and different level of success too, making it possible for them to continuously have their own niche, audience and fans. This shows that we are indeed uniquely carved and have different paths.

Is it making more sense now? 

I want you to start today to put your talents and gifts to good use. You will be amazed at what you can accomplish. Don’t worry about the early stages or even spectators, monitoring your level of success. So far you are impacting your world positively, enjoying what you are doing and bringing glory to God, the sky is just your starting point.

If you have buried your talents and gifts for a long time, this post is coming at the right time and just for you.  Embrace it and start where you are!

Keep enjoying your awesome life. xx
