Joyce Meyer Daily Devotion, 1 Corinthians 12:11

Good Morning, 

I read another daily devotion I wanted to share with you today. Enjoy your daily bread.




How to Develop Your Gifts 

People ask me all the time how to discover and develop the gifts God has given them. Here are a few helpful steps that I've discovered: 

1. Focus on the strengths God gave you. Concentrating on your strengths will help you fulfill the calling God has put on your life. 

2. Exercise your gift. Find something you like to do and that you do well, and do it over and over again. Want to know what will happen? You will feel better about yourself because you won't be constantly failing. 

3. Have the courage to be different. Unhappiness comes when you try to be like everyone else rather than embracing the unique person that you are. 

4. Learn to cope with criticism. Have enough confidence in who you are in Christ that you can listen to others and be open to change without feeling you have to agree with their viewpoint or attain their approval. 

God has planted greatness in you. Let today be the beginning of a great adventure as you step into the gifts He's given you. 

Prayer Starter: God, I want to cultivate and develop the gifts You've given me. Give me the courage to follow You and develop the gifts and abilities You've put inside me.
