To Faithfully Use Our Gifts
Gracious Lord,
We don’t all share the same gifts, and we acknowledge that some are more gifted in certain areas than others. Regardless of the type or quality of our gifts, though, each of us can commit to using them faithfully. Since you can use every single gift in unique ways to build up the body of Christ, every gift we have is valuable. It also means your church and the ministry are not functioning optimally when gifts go unused. Let us encourage confidence in each other and spur one another on to maximize the gifts you’ve given us. Give us the courage to call out apathy and indifference when necessary, and to restore to one another the joy of salvation, that we might be eager and use our gifts for your kingdom purposes.
In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
