Let's Talk About...How to Use Your TalentsSample

While yes, it’s important to uniquely live out the story God’s writing us individually, it’s also crucial to recognize that we’re all part of a much larger story that points not to self, but to a Savior. With this mindset, you can start to see your wiring and gifting as something needed by the larger “body of Christ,” which is the church. If your body was just full of arms you’d both look ridiculous and have zero ability to function. You need all the different parts to operate together for you to function. The same is true in an incredible way with followers of Jesus. Try writing down some of the talents you see in your friends, thank God for them, and then see how you fill in some of the gaps that they don’t have.
