ELEMENTAL FIRE

It has been enlightening to find that God wants for us to find the gifts he has giving us and utilize them for the kingdom. So many times you will agree to sit on a committee or whatever out of duty but, not necessarily because you have a gift in that area. Think about it, if you look and pray about what you truly love and are gifted at then you will be more productive in that area. I think we quiet often waste talent and risk burn out by not working where God has gifted us. Every area of life and or business are needed in Kingdom work. If you can just ask God to show you how to work your talents and gifts to the glory of his Kingdom you might be surprised. I personnally am a grease monkey by trade and it just lately occured to me that my true passion could be used in Kingdom work. The results have been amazing. I can tell for sure, for once in my life that I am doing exactly what God would have me do. I used to would try to find some unobtrusive place to fit in to whatever was happening at the church and was quite often frustrated with the whole prosess. I was out of my element and not as affective as I could be. With this passion comes a new fire for Christ and a closer kinship with the Holy Spirit, so I highly recomend it. Pray for your passions and gifts, pray the God will us them to the glory of the Kingdom of God. Try spreading the love of our Lord and Savior- IN YOUR ELEMENT. He wouldn't have it any other way.
