Dear Families - 

While thinking about the parable of the talents, Matthew 25:14-30, the focus seems to be on money and how it should be used wisely but talents can also imply something we are good at, a God given talent - everyone has one! 

Ephesians 4:11 - And He gave some apostles; and some prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, Pastors and teachers.

Your talent may be managing money, playing an instrument or maybe you're an artist or maybe you enjoy working with children. 

1 Corinthians 12:4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same spirit. 

The point is everyone has something to give that will bless others.  Maybe your talent or gift is giving a friendly smile or maybe you're really good at listening to someone who is feeling down - that in itself is a tremendous gift. Even the work that we do in every day life is important.  Whether we are paid to work or if it is something that we do on a volunteer basis, we can bless someone else's life in doing so.

Colossians 3:23-24 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward.  It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

Think about what you can offer and use it to the best of your ability.  You might be surprised at how good you feel, and how you can bless someone with your special God given talent at the same time!
