What Are You Good At?

³⁵He's gifted them with the know-how needed for carving, designing, weaving, and embroidering in blue, purple, and scarlet fabrics, and in fine linen. They can make anything and design anything.

Exodus 36

¹"Bezalel and Oholiab, along with everyone whom GOD has given the skill and know-how for making everything involved in the worship of the Sanctuary as commanded by GOD, are to start to work."

Think about the talents and skills you've discovered so far in your life. As you create a mental list, consider all spheres of your life: hobbies, work, sports, family activities. God has uniquely created you with certain aptitudes and has allowed you many experiences designed to develop them. Be sure to include your growing up years and school activities as well as your adult years.

Now, get out a sheet of paper and actually write down what you're good at. Perhaps you'll want to tuck the sheet of paper away somewhere. Pull it out when you need encouragement or a reminder of your abilities.

Before you put your list away, go back through it and asterisk the items that currently hold the greatest interest for you.

To the side of the asterisked items, jot down places or people where you could contribute this skill or ability.

Finally, pray and ask God where and when He would have you invest this ability for His purposes.
