What's In Your Wallet?

Ok...I know this title is a little goofy, but I can't thing of any other way to get your mind thinking on the things that others cannot see from looking at you...your money, your talents, your time, your thoughts. So maybe we should just say "What's in your ________________?

In Dr. Frank Page's book, The Nehemiah Factor, he says " Every talent is needed in the divine economy. Every talent is precious in the sight of God". Do you understand what he is saying? No matter who you are, what you've done, where you work, how your kids turned out, if you're married or single, young or old....you have been divinely designed with talents that are priceless in the divine economy. It doesn't matter if you think you aren't good enough, God says "I created and formed every detail of everything you are comprised of. I don't make mistakes." Do you realize that unless the church begins using their gifts for God...we will need a spiritual bailout because of our laziness, pride, greed or false humility?

What's holding you back from allowing God to use you fully. So many things are pulling our time these days. Why not give God a try. Give Him those special hidden gifts and talents and start using them around your home, church and town. Let's watch and see what a huge different God can make in our community, when we are doing out part to boost the divine economy.

Check out Romans 12, 1 Corinthians 12-14 and Ephesians 4 for more on finding out your spiritual gift.
