Did You Know God Gifted You?
But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift.
Ephesians 4:7

Ponder This
God has given you a spiritual gift. Do you see the word “grace” in today’s verse? It’s the Greek word charis. This is the word that we get our word charismatic from. You have a charismatic gift. Did you know that you’re a charismatic person? Well, you say, “I’m not charismatic.” Don’t think by charismatic that we mean somebody who has a great smile, a firm handshake, and the ability to speak well. We say, “Well, that man is charismatic. He’d make a good politician.” That’s a corruption of the word charismatic. The word charismatic merely means a person who has been gifted by grace.
Now, God has given you a grace gift; therefore, do not insult God by saying God cannot use you. In the Church, there can be no inferiority; there can be no superiority. We are what we are by the gift of God.
