Inspiration Week,2010 (2)

Choong shared a message on Wednesday evening about Disciples of Jesus. Jesus’ twelve disciples were all very unique. They had completely different personalities and backgrounds. But all of them walked with Jesus and worked for Him. Today, we all are different and unique as the twelve disciples were. We have different appearance, personalities, and abilities. Now, what can we give to our friends? How can we work for Jesus? Our diversity is a blessing from God. Let us use whatever we have and work for Him as His disciples.

On Thursday, the last meeting for this Inspiration Week at the Fellowship Hall, Robin Ramroop was the speaker in which he presented Spiritual Gifts through the title “Can He Trust You?”

There are types of people in the church—members, believers, and disciples. Members and believers never miss the church but they do nothing for the church. However, disciples run up mission of the church using their spiritual gifts. Every one of us is blessed with spiritual gift. It can be any kinds – giving, helping, or even carrying heavy stuff is a gift that you have to serve for God! Each gift is valued and significant. Jesus said in Matthew 28, “Go to the people and make them my disciples.” God is expecting us to use our gifts to spread the gospel and to make people prepare for the Second Coming. Devil is happy when we are angry or frustrated because our spiritual gifts are not used and the gospel is not spread. The church’s function is less and crippled in one area when we are not using our gifts. We all need each other. “I need you and you need me. You have something to help me to be saved.” When we used our gifts and did something for God, the church will keep being alive. Also, when we use our gifts, God will multiply them.

Why did God give you the gift? Why only you are the SDA in your family? It is because God trusts you to use it for His work—to make disciples of Jesus in the neighborhood and around the world. God trust you with that gift. Let us respond to His trust with our service.
