Use your gifts to bless others

Use your gifts to bless others

November 9: Chronicles 4 today by Br. Kari

Theme: Use your gifts to bless others.

Text: Matthew 20:15 (NLT)

Is it against the law for me to do what I want with my money? Should you be jealous because I am kind to others?’

Reflection:

God gives us gifts and abilities – our greatness comes from using his blessings to serve others. Even though He has set guidelines for us to use these gifts we still have the freedom to use them as we choose. However, we need to realize that at the end of the day, we will give an account of how we have used what was given to us.
According to today’s reading, the master confirmed that he had the right to do whatever he wanted with his money. Thankfully for him, he used his gifts to favour those who worked in his vineyard. In like manner, God is always showering His children, even those who do not deserve, his unfailing love. Unfortunately, some specialize in using their God-given gifts to oppress others. That will not be your case in the name of Jesus!
Do you recognize that God has given you the freedom to use your gifts as you please? Do you also realize that you will account for every blessing the Ĺord has given you? Wisdom requires that you use your gifts to be a blessing to God’s business and His people rather than on your selfish desires. Your gifts are given to make you a blessing.

Prayer:

Father grant me the grace to use my gifts to bless others in the name of Jesus. Amen
