Today’s Scripture: Romans 12:6 ESV: Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith;
You have something right now that someone needs and I am encouraging you to use what you have. Most times we don’t think we have much and think we have to get to a certain point in our lives before we can give or be of much use to anyone.
So not true. In Romans 12:3 we are instructed to give in the measure of faith we have been given. This does not say you will one day reach a level of faith you can give but give in the measure you have already been given.
What each of us has been given is different. You and I are gifted with different things but gifted nonetheless. This affirmation is my gift to you and I appeal to you today to use what you have right now.
What do you have today you use for others?
Today’s Prayer: Father God, thank You for Your people, Your body. Thank You for gifting each of us to serve the other members of Your body. Embolden us to use what You have given us confidently and boldly. Keep evil and doubts far from us and remind us we have enough in You. Build our faith. Amen
