Whats your role on the team? pt.4

Lately, i've been figuring out more what i'm good at as I think more about my spiritual gifts.

But a side effect of that is that I now realize what i seriously suck at. Honestly, i hate it. I come from a background where i've had to do everything. And usually everything goes well, or atleast decent. But lately, I realize, i seriously am horrible at those things im not gifted in! It's been extremely humbling, God has shown me my complete inadequacy. I know its good for me, but I hate the feeling of being humbled.

I realizeI wanted to be the point guard, shooting guard, forward, and center (Forgive me for using a sports analogy). I realize I can only be one. And there are those around me that are soooo gifted it makes me envious at times. My self-centeredness makes me think of my role, but I forgot that there are others on the team! In a sense, I was being hypocritical. I wanted to find my role on the team, but I hated finding out what my role on the team is not.

So perhaps an important step in realizing your spiritual gifts is to realize your not gifted in everything, and that you are in desperate need of the body of Christ to fill in.

Think about it
