You Are Created For...નમૂનો

GENESIS 1:26A, 2:7,8,15

Look within you. You have been given. Man gave names to all the animals, but the man found no help that fit him. Notice these two great aspects of man's existence when he was created.

First - You are gifted. You have an ability. He gives names to all the animals and everything. Wow! Have you ever tried to come up with an original name for something, for someone? It's not easy. Can you imagine how creative he must have been?

we have to look at what God has given us. And realize that He provides help for everything we cannot do.

What is it within us that often wants to be something else and be capable of doing something different than what we are doing? It can cause tremendous pain in your life because a degree will not give you a gift. A degree may help develop and improve your gift.

So much of our failure is because we keep trying to do things that we actually cannot do, and we never grow in that area because we don't have that gift. It's like writing with the wrong hand. You can do it, but it exhausts you. It's so different when you do it in line with who you are and what your gift is.

I often come across people who wonder what the Lord wants them to do. Paul's advice in Romans 12 is: "Discern what is the will of the Lord." Verse 3: "Be sober-minded, as each has received a gift." Verse 4: "We all have different gifts." What does he say? The first step to finding out what the Lord's will is for your life is to find out what gifts do I have. It is a great invitation to self-discovery, acceptance, and aligning and directing your life according to what you can do.
