“We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us…” - Romans 12:6, NIV
It's the most wonderful time of the year, and as some respectively put it, it's the season of giving. You don't have to wait for December to get a gift, God has given each of us gifts. He’s also given us the grace, the supernatural power to operate in those gifts. In other words, if God has called you to do something, He has equipped you by His grace.
Scripture says that His yoke is easy and His burden is light (Matthew 11:30). That means when we are doing what we are called to do, when we are operating in our gift, there will be an “easiness” about it. That doesn’t mean there won’t be any opposition. It doesn’t mean there won’t be obstacles or that it won’t take effort on your part. But what it does mean is that we will have a supernatural empowerment to do it. It will just come naturally and flow out of you.
If you are doing something that always seems hard, always seems heavy and drains the energy out of you, you might want to spend some time in prayer before God and see if that’s really what He has for you. Just because it’s a “good” thing doesn’t mean it’s a “God” thing. But when it is God, you’ll know it. Sometimes we may wonder how we're supposed to know, how will we know it's coming from God? Remember, everything that comes from God is good and perfect. You’ll feel His supernatural grace empowering you and refreshing you every step of the way.
When you pray today, ask God to empower you to live by His grace. Ask Him to help you to discern what He has for you, and to let go of anything that isn’t His best for my life. God wants nothing but the best for us, so make sure you believe that and He will continue to bless you and enrich your gifts.
