Sometimes I look at other people and the impact they are making on others in the world and I don't feel like I can compete. I know it's not a competition, but sometimes I look up to these people and I just think that I can never be like them.
We are all different. We all have our own unique gifts and talents so how can I let those doubts get in my head? If I had the answer to that, I'd be ecstatic! But for some reason, we all seem to fall into a never-ending comparison trap.
I believe the best way we can serve others and love the Lord is through our gifts. But what if we don't have gifts and what if you feel like you don't have any? Impossible! We all have a spiritual gift..and some people have more!
"A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other." (1 Corinthians 12:7)
A spiritual gift is given to each of us! I have one, you have one, we all have one!
The best way we can ever help each other is by using our spiritual gifts. Imagine all believers using their spiritual gifts to serve...it's beautiful!
I know a common question might be...well how can I figure out what mine is?
There are spiritual gift tests you can take online. The link below is the same website I have used in the past to see what mine were because I was really curious and just not 100% sure what my gifts were.

I know we are all sinners and we aren't perfect. That's just a fact. One thing that I really do believe is that deep down, people want to help people. We just often get scared, care too much what other people think, and just don't do it. I am encouraging you today that the best way you can help people is by using your spiritual gifts.
