Oh, what a fun forum Idea!! I have a Favorite.........
Desire is a manifestation of Power........... It is "Your" Talents seeking to Express themselves!
Think about it....do we usually "Desire" to do things we have no Talent for? Furthermore, can you notice that you Do and have shown some talent for things you have had Desire to do? If you agree with this, you may also agree as I do, that ........
Wherever your Desires are, you will Discover your talents!
By this we can learn to Recognize what gifts & talents God has invested in us, and if He has, it is surely for purposes! If we discover those purposes as they are intended by God, and bring forth out of those Talents, God has said we will be Rewarded by what we bring forth out of them.
They are not all physical Talents, so that someone may be feeling...I have no Talents. But often a person may have a gift or talent to really 'empathize' with hurting people and some may have a special desire and readiness to meet a person's physical needs, and some may have a talent to Teach, like Thomas, and some to lead, like Lanell, and some to really do services like John Sanchez who has a Christian book Store, and some to write, and some have a knack for bringing people together, and on and on. And it is scriptural that God created us each with certain gifts & talents, so that we may know he did Not leave anyone without some type of ministry that they can Give out of, and all are needful and all are profitable to others. As an Encourager I love to Notice what gifts & talents I can see in other people and encourage them to also Recognize them and then step out to grow them and use them in order to build and uplift other people.
To our Growing in the Talents that are Exposed "in" our Desires! Kim S
