what are your gifts?

I know I would be excited to hear what gifts God has given you. You would be amazed what gifts God has given people. It is a opportunity to glorify God by being thankful and it will encourage others to find theirs. You will be amazed at how many I have. Before I tell mine from time to time--allowing others to tell of theirs-- a short time ago when ministering to a brother,he told me his gift. He sits in a wheelchair because he fell off a roof. both of his hands and arms are of no use. He said reach over there and hand me the papers, I laid them on his bed and he said most are photo copies but there are 4 in there you can have. He said, I put a pencil in my mouth to draw them. You know I do pictures but not that good, I can use my hands. I esp. like the one with the cross and a bible on it. He draws a log cabin with all the boards. his lines are perfect. The pictures that I draw are a gift from God. The series that I did was on the attributes of God. I draw a picture within a picture so you can see 2 pictures at once. wish you could see them. God bless.

I'm surprised no replies. Here is another one of mine. I have been given the gift of poetry. It is very helpful to my other gift of music. The difference between writing poetry and having the gift is that God helps you write poems. The poems are beyond the average poems that are very nice indeed. The stuff that God gives us as a gift are unfathomable. My poetry is so profound that it is obvious that it's supernatural. it comes simular to the way that prophesy comes. many more to come. all glory goes to God ,he knows I do that's why I have the gift.

tip=== If you want to be loaded with gifts, I know why God has given me so many== it is because he knows you will use them and that is also for his glory. I,m not ashamed or bragging because The use of all he gives us is so we can teach others. example I used to be a bass player in the church. After several years of playing bass also their are other churches who have bass players. They were trained by guess who. Another gift from the Lord is the ability to use graphic arts know as visual arts, except they are of my own invention. In the secular world they charge $120.00 a seat to see the stuff I do for free. It is all used to minister Jesus. many more gifts to tell of praise God.

another gift I have is a teacher. Many have told me personally that it is so easy to understand what I'm saying. the key to that is that when I speak I kind of draw a picture with my words. I learned to talk with a Mexican friend and co-worker who by the way was a Christian, who hardly knew english. He taught me and I taught him our lanquage. That was a gift. I would use body lanquage alot. Jesus used parables and stories to teach. I remember once ago when witnessing. I used the story of Zacheous and took a child up to hold on to a tree branch, I was very careful to make sure they didn't fall. It could be by a bush to tell of the burning bush with Moses. Thank you Lord for our gifts.

another one of the gifts God has given me. joy, yes joy, it is the fruit of the Holy Spirit Gal.5:22 I used to be very depressed 35 yrs. ago. after you use this fruit which comes forth by faith, it is increased more and more. God is very active in my life and a Spirit of revival holds me up like wings of a eagle. big key to this is praising God, worship, staying in the good book.haleluia.

fun to study-- most people follow a certain study pattern, basically what they are taught. God has given me a way to study so that when I am through I feel like dancing for joy. Ideas pour into my head that are absolutely joyful. I don't want to be seen as bragging so let's give you one of them. It's like a game-- which removes any need for a time wasting video game-- every subject has a variety of facets. each facet has a first letter with those you can build a memory word or phrase or even a song. check this one out-- r--are----u----you---- in----in-carnation--- (the) S--second coming-- h--humanity-- e--exaltation-- p-- prophet, priest, king-- p-- pre-existance-- a-- ascension-- r--ressurection-- d---deity. r-u-in-the-sheppard. the blood atonement is already in the doctrine of redemption. the acrostic I have given you is the most important things about Jesus Christ. also the doctrine of Christ. these are the titles of coarse not the descriptions, which we must know also. thank you Jesus. I almost forgot to add that is not the perfect spelling of shepherd but it's amazing how it seems correct in the acrostic. God bless. :-)
