Each of us has been entrusted with something. Something great and wonderful. One that adds value to the world we are living in now. Now that we are more desperate for certainty, we shouldn’t take anything for granted.
Think about the story Jesus told: each servant was given money according to his ability. The word “ability” (dunamis) which is used in the New Testament 120 times can also mean “power” or “miraculous power”.
Your dunamis isn’t a skill you developed. It is a supernatural empowerment God had for you so that you can grow and multiply it. You didn’t earn your initial dunamis, but once you take responsibility for what you were given, you will be rewarded with more.
What are you doing with that God gave? It wasn’t an easy gift where you can lie back and know you are great whether you do something or not. You have to use it to make it grow.
Due to the hard work and responsibilities necessary to nurture a creative gift many of us tend to neglect that part of us and just give it up.
Our gifts and abilities shouldn’t scare us. It’s all we need to be able to give fruit/ be productive uniquely in the areas we are located, but there is one condition we have to meet – we need to accept the responsibility the gift requires.
Remember when you work in, with and on our gift or ability, more is acquired.
God partners with those who multiply what they were given – Remember this.
While writing this blog, I was humming on Goodlyfe Crew – Moze RADIO and Weasal’s Ability song, watch it below. Hope you get motivated to work on your creative side.
