1 Corinthians 15:58 - "Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourself fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain."
"I'm just not good at anything." Have you ever heard someone say that phrase? How often have you felt like saying it? Discovering your talents and how to use them can be a tough process. In the book of Corinthians, Paul instructs the churches in and around Corinth to give themselves fully to the work of the Lord. I believe in order to give ourselves fully to the Lord, we must know our spiritual gifts and strengths.
If you are at a place where you would like to seriously give yourself wholly to the Lord, I encourage you to buy the book Strengthsfinder 2.0 by Tom Rath. I also encourage you to contact a minister at your church about taking a Spiritual Gifts Survey. Once you have taken those tests, make an appointment with an organization about how you could use your gifts in honor of our Lord.
You may have a full-time job but choose to volunteer your time and use your strengths to honor God.
