Good Day Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
A third facet in the worship of giving is of our talents and abilities for God’s glory. Many of us Christians serve the Lord in capacities that never utilize our talent(s). In Scripture Jesus spoke “The Parable of the Talents”[1] in which the men who used the talents given them saw their talents doubled while the man who buried his talent drew his master’s displeasure. The talent in the parable was money, whereas today we consider a talent to be a special natural ability, aptitude or capacity for achievement or success that we as Christians have been given by God to use for His honor and glory. As different talents are given to different Christians, they all work together to glorify God and edify each other. It is amazing how God has given a special talent to every one of His children, but it is also amazing how many of His children bury their talent, failing to worship the Lord with it. This displeases our Master who desires and deserves our genuine worship.
What is your God-given talent? Do you bury it or use it in worship of your Lord?
“So, we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us,” (Romans 12:5-6a)
