I believe talents are a gift from God. I believe you should use these gifts to bless others and to glorify God.
I don’t feel they have to be some major thing but, can also be the small things we do daily. There’s also no need to be ashamed of them.
So, what do I think my talents are?
- being thankful
- singing
- being kind and gentle
- cooking & baking
- determined
- crocheting
- sense of humor
- paying attention to small blessings
- smiling
Reviewing my list gives me a warm, fussy & happy feeling. I can think of ways I have used every one of these talents to bless others.
I know I will never sing or perform stand-up comedy on a huge stage, before 100s of people. I love singing in our small country church and putting a smile on the faces of those around me.
I know I will never bake the ultimate wedding cake or serve a grand dish to a restaurant full of people and that is fine by me. I am content cooking for my family and those around me.
I am thankful that God has put me where I am, to use the talents He gave me, to be a blessing to others.
“Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.” II Corinthians 9:15
