- Christianity
We know that we have each been gifted with different abilities and talents. These unique things should be fostered and practiced so that we can use them for God. The body of Christ is made up of such a diverse group of believers, so it is imperative that we use those things to point to Christ. The purpose of our talents is not for self-gain, but ultimately for serving others and glorifying God. When we diligently develop our talents, they can open doors of opportunity to impact society and people who would otherwise not take notice of God. However, our work should be motivated by our love for God and not for the spotlight it might afford us. We can help our children identify their God-given talents by asking the following questions. What is a task that comes easily to them? What are they naturally good at? What are some of their biggest character strengths?
