1 Peter 4:10 … With whatever Gifts (06/14/17)

“Serve one another with whatever Gift each of you has Received.”
~ unknown (1 Peter 4:10)

 

While we each have scintillatingly unique Gifts that only we can use to serve others, this verse communicates the general Truth that we are simply to Give whatever we have to Give — wherever we already are, for whom is already nearest by.

Indeed, we are never to “wait for a better time” to Give, nor are we ever to “learn more” before Giving or “search for true Purpose” before Giving either.  We never have anything “more important to do” than to reach out boldly into the lives of those around us – to bring them Kindness; to bring them Peace: to bring them Joy; to bring them Love …

And indeed, in society as screwed up (i.e. as founded on – and sadly, as appreciative of – fear) as ours currently is, even the smallest deed of self-sacrificial Goodness is perceived as something amazing – and thus has an amazing effect on others; both on the one to whom it is given, as well as to all those blessed to witness the same.

 

Amen … Let it be so.
