If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully.
ROMANS 12:6 – 8
Once we discover our unique “all,” our lives become even richer and more exciting as we quickly learn that having and doing it all is not just about us; it’s about helping and serving others. We begin to clearly see how our specific destiny is a God-ordained puzzle piece that fits perfectly into his strategy for reaching the lost and the hurting during this moment in time. We have the awesome responsibility of recognizing and developing our gifts because they were given to us by God to impact the world around us.
We need to ask ourselves: If I do not step up and run my race, who may not end up hearing about Jesus? Who may remain hungry? Who may remain enslaved, impoverished, or forsaken . . . or who may miss out on simply discovering that they too have a unique “all”?
Let’s determine in our hearts to seek to discover our unique purpose. There’s nothing more exciting than living each day having and doing all that we were perfectly designed to do, and there’s no use wasting even a second of our time trying to jam our foot into someone else’s glass slipper . . . we have a world to change!
