At the end of every week, we'll give you a challenge—something to try that might be outside your regular routine. Each challenge is designed to help you develop one important spiritual habit. This week, it's...

USE YOUR GIFTS

God has given all of us unique gifts. Whether it's your skills, talents, character traits, experiences, lessons learned, or even some of the stuff you own, you have a lot you can share with others. Today's challenge is going to help you think about the gifts God has uniquely given you, and how you can use those gifts to love God and others. Because when we use our gifts for God, we grow!

If you've ever had someone jump in and help when you were struggling, you know how good it feels to not be left on your own. For this challenge, reflect God's presence in your life by being there for someone else.

Think about your own unique gifts and use them to help someone else in a place they might otherwise feel isolated. It could be something like...

• Helping a friend study for a test.
• Going with them to visit a family member in the hospital.
• Cooking and sharing a meal when you know they'd be home alone.
• Forming a club for an interest you share.
