It was on a long car ride when we talked about it. He got excited about my dream. He gave me ideas and made ME get excited about it too. After all this time, someone was encouraging me to take my love of writing and do something with it.
There was someone once again who told me my writing was worth something and that I DID have the God given talents to make this happen! But the wonderful things is that one person can come along that we trust and believe enough to silence that voice and show us how not only do we believe in God but that He believes in us! He entrusts us with these gifts and talents in life because He knows he has equipped us for them! God has given each of us certain gifts.
Some of them spiritual and some of them of the innate kind that anyone could have regardless of their faith. The enemy wants us to squander those gifts and those talents so that they never benefit anyone, least of all God and His Kingdom!
It would be impossible for me to list all the gifts and talents a person could have. Each one of us in the body of Christ is given spiritual gifts. No one inside the Church is omitted. We are all empowered by the Spirit with these gifts, although not the same gifts as our friends or family! Our gifts are given as God wills.
We are all one body with different parts and different functions. The Bible tells us in 1 Corinthians There are various kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are various kinds of working, but the same God who works all things in all people. But to each person is given the manifestation of the Ruach for the benefit of all. For to one is given through the Ruach a word of wisdom, to another a word of knowledge according to the same Ruach, to another faith by the same Ruach, to another gifts of healings by the one Ruach, to another workings of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.
But one and the same Ruach activates all these things, distributing to each person individually as He wills. So while our gifts may not be the same, we are all given them if we are in Christ! So let no one ever convince you that you are not gifted in some way! These are God given gifts that no man can take away from us! And these gifts are given to glorify God and to help and encourage one another! No matter what anyone says to you or about you, they cannot take these from you!!
Inherent gifts are gifts you are born with. Gifts such as these might be the gift of singing, the gift of speaking, the gift of teaching, and yes, the gift of writing.
These are the things we just seem to be able to do without any formal training, etc. They come naturally to us, regardless of whether we know God and have the Holy Spirit or not. These are in fact God given gifts but not the gifts of the Spirit. These singers have improved through this focusing of myself and their techniques. It could be an orchestra..
