God Given Talent

God is good, his love endures forever. Some people have unbelievable talent. Just look at the Guinness book of world records, they have the fastest man alive or best at whatever. Michal Phelps is the undisputed fastest swimmer in the world, that’s crazy. Usain Bolt the fastest man in the world has broke his own record. He even makes it look easy. They are not Christians and they have changed the world of sports.
These people are amazing at those things but what are you good at? You can probably think of at least one thing your good at. Now good at and talented at are two different things. Good at is something you have to work extra hard to get. Like a sport, you have to work hard at it. Maybe your just talented, being able to do something without having to work so hard. It can be something as simple as righting poetry. I have no earthly desire to do that and no talent for that either. But some of you like it and have a talent for that.
Now use that for Gods glory and give him praise. Talent is God given, most people don’t realize that, they think that they deserve that. They don’t give God credit they go about using that talent. Now here’s the challenge, or maybe not a challenge more a question. Do you use the talents that you have for his glory or do you use it for your own means.
Yes, awesome then you probably can relate to this. You use you talent, and God blessed you or will in the future. The people who lean on him are usually more satisfied with whatever they do cause they love God, and most Christian people have decided that win or lose they will give God the glory.
Everyone doesn’t have that reassurance. They live for there own pleasure. The happiness of victory but they also have a huge “down” when they lose cause they have no reason to be happy cause they have no victory to reassure them. This is why some people strive for perfection, and that’s a good thing, but no ones perfect. When they fail there’s nothing to satisfy.
This column was suppose to help you see the real reason why you have a talent and hopefully you answered that you use it for his glory. But if you for fun its not bad but you need to commit that its for the Lord and do it all out. Thanks for reading.
