TALENTS AND GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.....(2)

I am all excited about this lesson for sure because it touches our lives in a very special when. At some point, this are adds meaning to our lives. 

A promise is a promise! As I said the other day that I will get to answer some questions as we go on with this lesson, here I am starting today and my prayer is that all this knowledge gets us to higher level of thinking than we were yesterday and will trigger something in our hearts to get to know more about this in a specific way meaning that, how do they really apply in our lives, individually.

Well, let us start with the key area, perhaps you have been using this words or heard some people speaking about them... Let us get into the meaning of these two, talents and gifts of the Holy Spirit.

Talent
A talent is a pattern of thought, feeling or behavior that happens repeatedly and can be productively applied. Is a natural skill and it is innate, can not be acquired.
  1. Talents determine your moment to moment reaction to your environment. 
  2. Results in your consistently pattern of thoughts or behavior where by conscious effort is needed to deviate from those patterns.
I strongly believe that each one of us is born with a talent whether we know it or we don't, whether we are using our talents or not, whether we appreciate the talents we have or not. Whether you are a believer or a non believer, you have a talent. And all talents come from God even though there are those who misuse their talents by not letting God be glorified through them.

Knowledge and skills are not talents as they can be acquired. Talent is an inborn thing. Has something to do with genetics. People inherit from their parents, grandparents, great grandparents and so on. God chose a family thing as a way to pass on talents to people. You can not acquire a talent but you can acquire skills and knowledge to enhance your talent.

There may be two people doing the same thing but the one with a talent will enjoy more doing that and will use less effort as compared to the one who is not talented in that area.

What you know reveals more about your experience and education than who you are at the core. God gives us talents to help us fulfill the purpose He has for us here on earth. It is like He has equipped us with the necessary tools for the job. And this plays part in your identity.  
Stay tuned for more and God bless you so much!!!
