Our gifts are given to us to be used in God's service.

My nephew’s son and his daughter had their weddings just a month apart, and I wrote to them, asking them to consider two verses from the New Testament. I think they are verses that all of us could take to heart. Here they are.

In First Corinthians, Chapter 4, verse 7 we read,

“What do you possess that you have not received? But you have received it, why are you boasting?              

Our bodies, minds, and educations, came to us from God through our parents who dumped it in our laps.

Then, Matthew, Chapter Five tells us God entrusted our bodies and minds to us to be used in helping the needing.

“You are the light of the world. You are the salt of the earth.”  

So, let’s get out there, and spread that salt and that light.
