Sorry I missed yesterday. I kinda fell asleep after dinner and didn't wake up until the next morning. I did read the passage in the morning though (not that thats any excuse...)
"The Lord's Supper"
Remember, remember, remember what Jesus has done for us. Remember the extent of his pain. Remember the extent of his love. And if anyone eats this drink and eats this bread in an unworthy manner is guilty of sinning. SO examine yourself first. Take care of your sins and your attitude before you come before God. This is important. A reminder but a solemn and meaningful one nonetheless.
"Spiritual Gifts"
I love God's timing. I read this passage after we had our first Grad Trans class and basically just after all the questions were raised: what am I going to be doing in the future? what does God want me to do in the future? what are my gifts? talents?
And here's what the Bible says about spiritual gifts. It all comes from the Spirit. And there are different manifestations of the Spirit. Not everyone is to do the same thing, we're all different. It goes on to talk about healing, miracles, prophecy, distinguishing between spirits, speaking in tongues, interpretation of tongues. Then I asked myself this: what is my spiritual gifts?
Well the answer God gave me was: well, what have you done? (your actions generally reflect who you are, your gifts, interests, etc...) I went, kids, I love them. I love the teach them, take care of them. Relationships. I love to build them and encourage others. Then came the one thing I get from everyone, in my heart jar, on my encouragement notes, I'm cheerful, joyful. I can spread joy and happiness because I have it from God.
Yup. Thank you sooo very much God. Thank you.
