FINDING YOUR PLACE IN THE KINGDOM

Jonelle Maxwell

How many times have we felt like a hamster spinning our wheels trying to figure out what we are suppose to be doing? If we will be honest, all of us have been in this place at one time or another.

The Kingdom of God is similar to going to finding a new job. When we seek for a job, more than likely will search for areas we qualify and have experience in. This is what God does with us. He does not take those talents away when we get saved. He actually purifies our talents and gifts so it can be used to glorify Him.

Also, there are times God will give you a new gift and talent because someone does not want to use theirs. NOTHING IS WASTED WITH GOD! He will give you their gift and train you in how to use it. My advice is not to allow your gifts to lay dormant. Use them as God sees fit and remain faithful.

When seeking the Lord concerning where you belong, ask Him to reveal those areas you are passionate about. He will reveal and put you in position to practice, practice, practice until your gifts and talents become perfected.

THIS IS TO THE GLORY OF GOD!

In my own personal testimony, I have been writing all my life. I remember writing short poetry and journaling during my alone time.

Although, I was told by my teachers that I had a low writing and comprehensive level, I did not allow that to stop me.

When I accepted the Lord, He began to give me a passion to write. During times of teaching, my bible mentor would ask, “When is the book coming out?”

Then, God used others to tell me I have books of knowledge on the inside of me. Now, Iam writing, writing, and writing. God put me in position to do what I love doing and that’s glorifying Him through writing.

So, whatever the Lord is revealing to you about your gifts and talents, allow Him to perfect it and put you in position to do what you love doing the most.

TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!
