What are you going to do with what you have been given?

Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14-25)

Spiritual Gifts (1 Corinthians 12:4-7, 11)

Both of these scriptures offer an opportunity to reflect on what you have been given by God and what you do with those gifts. Read one or both of the scriptures and reflect.

  • What gifts do you have to share with others?
  • In what ways are you sharing those gifts?
  • Are there other ways those gifts can benefit the community?
  • What new thing is God calling you to do with your gifts?
  • What gifts do you see in others?
