Nurturing Your Faith – Your Distinct Gifts

null

I have a girlfriend (I’ll call her Mer) who is the child ofistered missionary parents. Look at her… Mer is 20 years old… and she is in college doing her Bachelors in Psychology.

And let me tell you, it’s not only her degree that makes her special, it’s the fact that she was gifted in a particular subjects that she studies. And by the way, she majors in psychology.

As a little girl Mer was able to identify dovetail colors by looking through leaves. I say a little girl because as a adult I still believe that she would be able to do that Except that she’s planning to get her metaphysics degree in England! despairing to return to America for college.

My point is: we are born with gifts and there are those special gifts that we grew up with that not only enrich our life but also make our lives fulfilling.

What are those gifts? In the area of your life? What gifts are you giving to immensely benefit and bless another person Life was meant to be growth – not failure.

If you are not feeling fulfilled in some area of your life…then look within the area of your live and see what gifts you may have over and beyond your own. The reason you are here on earth is because of those special gifts I mentioned earlier… And they have not lost their value. Your laced shoes would look a lot uglier if you had were born without the gift of grace and patience. Don’t ever forget that fact.

You know, God didn’t give you a gift. He never gave you a gift. You were gifted by His own purpose of gifting you. You are here for reasons you can’t even fathom. You are here, because you are meant to be here. You have a purpose in life and with that gift you are supposed to work towards making your life worthwhile, purifying and fulfilling at its best. You are Divine and without that purpose you float your way through life getting hit head on – totally unprepared for where life is taking you.

So if you are not feeling fulfilled in your own life…don’t get discouraged. Know that it’s your purpose that is calling you. And if you are searching for a cause to merge with then look only within. When you are fulfilled in your life,

Find the gem – the diamond within your own heart and with your own eyes; don’t look around.

Enjoy life’s journey and remember you were born for a purpose; you were born for a reason of making a difference.

Best Wishes to You!

I was gifted with Marketing skills that helped me to land a number of key jobs. I always knew that I could assist others in promoting products and services within our community but no one was ever created in a vacuum. We never had a lacking for marketing.

When I met my husband he was working full-time for one of the largest economic development treatment groups in Canada. He got excited because he saw the tremendous need in our community for project and coaching aid.

I never believed that I could be a project manager and accomplished that particular dream but it was my small example that helped so many others to believe in their own potential.

Me and my husband did a lot of traveling around our area to perform various jobs although we often chose to stay at places less than pleasant on occasion. I remember the physical and emotional hurt and pain some of my jobs caused my family. I never once though I should have been a victim. I should have taken control and found out how to overcome my pain and the effects my childhood had on my life.

What gifts are you giving to someone else in your life? If you were in a nursing home, would you walk in a room and take a nap to prevent people from visiting you or would you do everything to assist others? Would your gifts and talents even alleviate, or somehow relief, this pain?

Do you develop yourself throughout a life coaching program? What kinds of skills do you develop and learn that make you a better version of somebody else. How are you using your talents, gifts or passion to help others?
