Be Good Stewards Of All We Receive

We are all given spiritual gifts to fulfil a special function within the body of Christ. Each of us receives at least one spiritual gift and we are called to be good stewards of all we receive from the Lord. Our gifts differ according to the grace God gives to each of us, and we are instructed to exercise them in accordance with the proportion of faith we have received.
The inflow of our spiritual giftings from God should result in a beneficial outflow of His grace to others. Gifts are not for our own selfish gratification but for the edification of the body of Christ. The grace that pours into our lives should become a channel of God's blessing, which in turn is willingly poured out in service to others... for His greater glory and praise.
As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace:

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of the Holy Spirit and for the spiritual gifts that we have been given by Your goodness and grace. We pray that we may be diligent to use the gifts and graces that have been given to us for the benefit of the body of Christ and for Your greater praise and glory - this we ask in Jesus name, AMEN.
