“Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit” (1 Corinthians 12:4).
Often times a bride and groom receive an abundance of gifts. They may have to store some of them, making room for the essentials they will need right away.
God not only gave the greatest Gift to mankind, He continues to give spiritual gifts to those who receive that Gift. All gifts are determined by the Holy Spirit. They are as unique and diverse as the individuals who receive them. I’ve often used the illustration of a jigsaw puzzle. Its many pieces fitly joined together make a beautiful picture.
You may not always know where you fit in with the body of Christ. God sees your potential better than you do. Take time to read and study 1 Corinthians 12.
Pray for His guidance, walking by faith as He bestows blessings and gifts upon you. Once I found what God wanted me to do with my life, I found I had accumulated other gifts. I store them away until I need to use them. And God blesses me with opportunities to use them, so they won’t have to stay in storage very long.
