For a long while, I never knew that I had a gift. I could never find any one thing that I was especially good at. I was always competative with others because I wanted to show off, to make them see that I could be good at anything. But I would usually end up quiting or losing intrest and everyone else would excel, I must have taken lessons for at least half a dozen instruments, but I alwasy quite before I could become extremely good. I didn't understand why I could never stick with one thing, but then God used me in so many ways. I was asked to fill in for my church's worship team, and also my friends band, even the school band needed some help....I believe God planned for me to try so many different instruments so that I could fill in any part when I was needed...and it's been really cool. So i guess my gift is that I'm an all around guy?

thanks guys  <--thats me right now*
LOL, Fire4Christ that is awesome! yeah, it's hard to do stuff like that when your shy.. but(like i told Anodyne a while ago  ), thats when your strongest. being shy means your more dependant on God's strength then your own! and that stregth will reach more ppl for Jesus then if you were fearless and didn't depend on God as much.
so count that as a blessing Fire4Christ, and use that evangelism gift ALL for Jesus!

HEY more verses!
for ya all ppl who are scared to live out their gifts...cuz it's scary(i'm one of you)....
"Be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest."-Joshua 1:9
for those who are having a difficult time living out your gifts cuz of world pressure, and all that. to those who are just not sure if they can do it...
"I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight."
-Isaiah 45:2
"I can do all things: through Chirst whitch strengthens me"
-Phil 4:13
and to those ppls out there who have dreams...but their not sure if their dreams are their gifts. like you may love something REALLY bad...and you want it to be your calling in life...
"Delight thy self also in the Lord; and He shall give you the desires of your heart."-Psalm 37:4
you see, God's desire ISN'T for us to be happy, it's for us to serve him. and thats where true happiness is!

You guys are surely gifted. I can feel it as read your your posts. Well, I love to sing. Its my passion. I also create dances for my church. And that is a gift that God is multiplying by helping the other girls to want to dance for God more. Like "He died 4 Me" I too write poems and songwriting but I'm not as gifted as you in this. Maybe we should hold a concert together!

Hey Kart! I guess music really is a huge part of your relationship with Jesus! That's awesome! If only more people would be as intimate with Jesus as you this world would be better. And yes, humming is kool too!

Jesusisking12, that's amazing! We have a sign language person at our church (actually multiple). I think it's an amazing gift and sometimes I just watch the sign language even though I don't know what it means. I think you're a blessing to all those who do not hear the same as I and possibly even to those who do!
I would have to say my gift has not been fully revealed. One of them is singing, though not my main one it certainly is fun! I am beginning to hear The Lord telling me over and over again that I am a leader but I am unsure of what He wants me to do with it.

Hey, Welcome to Jesus freak hidout Grant!(MyExample)
lol, singing could be used as a leading gift..but don't dive into anything, till you SURE it's what God wants you to do!
Praying for you, and be open to anything, cuz God could use you in ways that sound totally IMPOSSIBLE! but, with Him-- nothing in impossible.

Hi MyExample! You said that God keeps telling you something... That's gr8! That means He's got something great in store for you. You enjoy singing and wait on Him to lead you - though the road will seem hard! But He who began this good work in you will be faithful to complete it.
I think sign language is so amazing! I use as much as I can when I dance. But I don't know much. Its a great talent and what a ministry! I'll be praying for you, Jesusisking12. I know that many of the deaf will see and be with Jesus because of your faithfulness to God. You're such a great inspiration!

Oh wow, I have a few gifts that the Lord has blessed me with. I am a singer and a musician. I glorify the Lord in doing it as well. Each time I perform, I sing right to God. This gift is one that was like therapy to me. It actually was therapy at the beginning. I have a social disorder and do not talk to many at all. By singing or playing my music it is a way I communicate with others. It is a way for me to have a direct line to God as well. I play my instruments at least 4-6 hrs a day. I have vocal for 45 minutes a day. All this has helped me be more confident in the world. I am now able to hold my head higher as well. My mother is a classical musician and taught us the violin and cello from an early age. She was lucky to have children that love it as much as her. LOL She taught us that everything we do is to glorify the Lord and playing to Him or singing to Him is the greatest feeling. I play the guitar, drums and clarinet as well. Guitar a lot. My escape is in my music or singing.
Another gift I have I would say is that I love to volunteer my talents to agencies and as well raise money to help the under privledged. I have a sister that has lead by example in this. I have a very deep respect for her. In everything we do it is to be done with the intent to glorify the Lord. So it has helped me see and keep me accountable in my doings. I love music and it has helped me in the world. It has helped me become who I am. I hope that is a good person in the Lord.

God has truly blessed me
~I love to sing in church
~I am learning guitar
~I do expressive worship
The most recent thing God has shown me is the fact that I am called to preach!!! I am not sure yet if he wants me to be a pastor of a church, an evangelist, or a missionary. I am learning so much from my father because he is a pastor. I am just trying to learn to be a leader, and follow in Christ's footsteps.
It is so amazing how God blesses each person to make up the body!!! Everyones gifts are amazing and perfect for each individual and their personality.
Keep up the great work, and let God manifest himself in you!!!

I have a knack for poetry, and I can write pretty good essays under major pressure (50 minutes! uggh..) I have some art talent too, but I need more practice, training and praying to develop and refine it. The thing I might actually make a career out of, however, is biology. Life processes, genetics, cells, diseases, etc. have interested me for as long as I can remember. It would be so cool if God wants me in that field to find out incredible stuff about Creation and to battle the Darwinian brain-washing academic police.

My gift may seem somewhat strange... but I'm gifted in goal keeping. I've played soccer for 8.5 years, but just about a year ago did I realize how much keeping means to me, and how much it will affect my future.
Playing keeper is sooo much fun. Especially when I go 'flying through the air with the greatest of ease'. But the only not fun part is when I smack into the ground...
EDIT: And also, I going to strive to play on the Lady Eagles when I get older. Everyone on the team is a Christian, and there's a lot of ministry involved.

I had never really thought about this topic, until a while back. I was thinking what gifts/talents has God blessed me with? So I came up with these. *He gave me a wonderful voice to sing Him praises. *He gave me a wonderful ability to pick up any instrument and be able to play it. (For Him. ^u^) *He gave me a pretty good artistic ability. I especially love to do artwork that involves doing interesting things with crosses. *He gave me a flamboyant personality. I can be sociable and speak to people with ease. I get along with almost everyone i happen to meet. I am especially grateful for this because, I would like to one day be a Youth Pastor, and so I can communicate God's message to younger generations. *I also have a wonderful ability to write. I am a pretty loquacious person, and I have been writing stories for as long as I can remember. Right now, I am writing a Christian novel. About a girl whose best friend commits suicide. So in dealing with that, she turns her back on God. Though in the end, she does meet someone who might turn her life around. Just e-mails me or some such if you would like to know more about the novel. *I'm sure there might be more, but that is what i came up with :D All I can say is that I am very blessed.
Oh I Forgot!!! He also gave me a pretty sweet ability to dance purty well. lol. ^u^ And yea, it definitly takes a lot of strength from the Lord to be a Pastor. But He's always in my heart guiding me!! ^u^ Now I'm trying to listen to Him in helping me define if I want to be a YOUTH Pastor. Or like, the General type. Like the Head Pastor of a church. Ya know? So I'm praying for guidance in that aspect. I'm also praying for Him to help my dad realize that becoming a Pastor is a respectable career, and that there are other sideline things I can do to be able to afford to live. God will never leave me wanting or without. Anyways, on topic. I am so blessed that God has given me all these wonderful gifts and I am glad He has given you all amazing ones to!! Keep rocking for the Lord!!

You said there was nothing left down here.
Well, I roamed around the wasteland.
And I swear I found something.
I found hope. I found God.
I found the dream of the believers.
Oh God, Save us all..
