Spiritual Gifts

So the other day, I was listening to Chrystal Evans Hurst's podcast and she was interviewing Nicole Walters from episode from June.  It was part of her Girl Boss Chat and Nicole referenced 1 Peter 4:10 as she was explaining her 'why' in her business.  Now this is a scripture that I have read before but I never looked at it from the perspective she used.  When you look at this scripture and actually think about....I visualize God holding a bag and he is pulling out different gifts and handing them to different people (kinda like Santa Clause LOL!)...but no seriously...we all have a hand picked gift given to us by God and this very thing is suppose to be for serving others which ultimately will glorify God!  That simple thought, that straight-forward scripture really blew my mind.  So I got to thinking, "What are your gifts, Kim?  No, really...what are they?"

I took some time to just park at this scripture and meditate over it.  Then I made a list of my gifts.  Now these gifts are not the obvious but more so the daily, practical talents that I possess.  Things that could get easily overlooked as if  'This is what everyone does!'  I would like to share my list with you all in hopes that it would inspire you to think of a list of your own AND to keep me accountable for serving others with gifts!  So here it goes:

1.

Socially relatable

--I can talk to the walls!  I believe I get this from my mother plus I have older parents so I tend to relate to the older generation as well as my generation.

2. 

A feeler of people/ can read people

--the best way I can put it is like this, I relate to the term of

empath

(keen ability to sense what people around them are thinking and feeling; experiences a great deal of empathy to the point of taking on the pain of others at their own expense)

3. 

Generous

--simply put...if I have, you have!

These are just a few from my list but I hope that you can see what I mean when I say these are things that can be easily overlooked or pushed aside.  So...now it's your turn...what's own your list of gifts?
