When God made you, He equipped you with an array of talents and abilities that are uniquely yours. It’s up to you to discover those talents and to use them, but sometimes the world will encourage you to do otherwise. At times our society will attempt to cubbyhole you, to standardize you and to make you fit into a particular preformed mold. Perhaps God has other plans. Have you found something in this life that you’re passionate about; something that inspires you to jump out of bed in the morning and hit the ground running? And does your work honor the Creator by making His world a better place? If so, congratulations: You’re using your gifts well. Sometimes, because you’re a fallible human being, you may become so wrapped up in meeting society’s expectations that you fail to focus on God’s expectations. To do so is a mistake of major proportions—don’t do it. Instead, seek God’s guidance as you focus your energies on becoming the best “you” that you can possibly be. What’s the best way to thank God for the gifts that He has given you? By using them, starting today.
