Pause & Reflect
“There are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.” Different believers receive different forms of grace for service. That means comparison makes little sense. The purpose of a spiritual gift is not to prove that you are more important than another believer. Paul says the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the profit of all. Your gift is stewardship. Ask: How can it strengthen the body? Teach? Encourage? Serve? Lead? Give? Show mercy? Bring wisdom? The question is not only whether you possess a gift. It is whether love governs the way you use it.
Declare It Today
“The Holy Spirit gives gifts for the good of others. I will develop and use what He has entrusted to me with humility, love and service.”
Let's Pray
Holy Spirit, help me recognise and steward the gifts You have given. Keep me from comparison, pride and neglect. Amen.
