Gifted for A reason

Ever think of wonderful people I've already made and wonder why I needed you? Is there a real purpose for your life? Trust Me, I gave every person special gifts you included. Maybe you haven't found yours yet, but you will. "Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men, but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil" (Ephesians 5:15-16). I designed all people so their gift would work to benefit others. Some people are good managers. Some are good artists, or athletes, or teachers, or writer. The problem is many people don't care two cent about anybody else. They use whatever talents they're got to make a better life for themselvse. I hope you won't see things that way. When people attempt to decipher Gods will in the wrong way. Foolishness can occur, God tells us not to be foolish, but wise, making the most of our time, taking every opportunity that comes our way and using it wisely. When i lifted up bottle of coffee and put on the table or bench and slowly slipped downward fall to the floor tile, it didn't broke into pieces? With that zero angle of impact one meter sure it will broke into pieces, i said to myself The Lord was here, He didn't permitted to shattered the glassware into pieces. I said this place is Holy. We don't want to miss God's best for our lives. We want to be held on a steady course by His guiding presence. So, where do we find that guidance, that leading? Let's by looking at some of the essential prerequisite that help us determine. " For all who are being led by the spirit of God these are the sons of God"(Romans 8:14). Jonathan Edwards, before his twentieth birthday, the brilliant and Godly philosopher-theologians who became God's instrument in the Great Awakening revival of the eighteen century, resolved "Never to lose one moment of time, but to improve it in most profitable way I possibly can. What happen if the glassware broken into pieces there he enter into condemnation for, to much talking he will put you all your fear, guilt, to grade your standing, one is to ten this old man the great pretender. I dont want to sides wept this story. Or losses its focus. The scripture says that doing the will of the Lord requires wisdom, for as Paul writes in the next verse, those who are wise, those who are not foolish, understand what the will of the Lord is." following the will of God requires wisdom clear thinking, and, yes, even good old garden-variety common sense. Such a mixture helps us understand the Father's will. If any man is willing to do His will, he shall know lf the teaching, whether it is of God or whether I speak from Myself" (John7:17). prayed, read your Bible ask, knock He will open it talk to you. Read: Sow for yourselves righteousness; Reap in mercy; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the Lord, Till He comes and rain righteousness on you. Hosea 10:12 Watch for this there is a song for the Lord. The people of Hosea's day had become hardened to God's Word. They had heard it many times before and had grown apathetic to what God required of them. God's solution was for them to break up the fallow ground of their hearts. They were to allow Him to soften  their hardened hearts. When the earth was dry and crusty, the farmer would plow to loosen the soil so it was receptive to the seeds and the rains that would give life to the crop. Likewise, God's people were to break up the sinful barrier in their lives that prevented God's Word from penetrating their hearts. Then said Hosea, God would give life and refresh them by raining down on them in righteousness. As believer, we must continually cultivate our hearts and minds so that they are receptive to whatever God tells us. John exhorted those around him to prepare for Jesus coming. We too, can remind others to prepare their lived so that God's righteousness will penetrates and fill their lives. We can share the joy that God's Word brings us and encourage our friends to seek God will. We can model obedience for our children. We can tell of the blessing that have come to us as a result of obedience. We can help or break up the fallow ground in the hearts of those around us. Hosea admonished God's people to seek the Lord until His righteousness rains down upon them. We should immediately cultivate our hearts whenever it starts to become hardened toward God. If we keep our hearts prepared, we will be ready when God's Word comes to us. You are a gift for a reason.
