GIFTED

Everyone is born with some special gift given by the creator of heaven and earth. Now some people discover this gift early in their life, while others discover it later and unfortunately some don't at all. This gift I'm speaking of is directly tied to your purpose.
As men and women, we sometimes go through this life trying to discover our significance or better yet gain acceptance by others. The "others" could be family, friends, co-workers, or someone you're in a relationship with or pursuing one with.
Sometimes in order not to feel overlooked or left out the loop, you might dumb down or conceal your talents just to feel accepted. This is something that no man or woman should ever have to do. If someone really love, respect, or like you they won't require you to dim your light, because they will embrace you to shine not condemn you. They will support you and provide constructive criticism not destructive criticism, because they know your gift is for the greater good of everyone.
The bible says in Proverbs 18:16, "A gift opens the way for the giver and ushers him into the presence of the great." This scripture speaks volumes and I am a living testimony. My journey is far from over and so is yours.

Poetic Thought:

GOD sees the heart, people humble and ordinary,
Elevate your talent to produce the extraordinary,
Adversity is what tones your spiritual muscle,
Faith without works is dead, therefore you must hustle,
Discipline actions, focused attention, your life will be shifted,
Walk into the promise because you are truly gifted! ~ JD

There is a hip hop song called "Started from the bottom" by a rap artist name Drake. I like this song a lot, way beyond the surface aspect he is speaking of. How will you know what if feels like to be on top if you hadn't been at the bottom at some point in your life. Be humble, be resilient, because you're gifted!
Until next time, class dismiss!!!
