Acts 5:1-2amp
“There was a man of the name of Ananias who, with his wife Sapphira, sold some property but with her full knowledge and consent, dishonestly kept back part of the price which he received for it, though he brought the rest and gave it to the Apostles.”
Everyone has his/her proper gift to serve in a specific way that edifies the body of Christ and humanity.
Your gift is always an answer and never a problem. It is unique and intentional in purpose and design.
Lots of people are not aware of their gifts and others have neglected their gifts because it seems so ordinary to them.
Since we all crave to be accepted and welcome, sometimes we compare our gifts to others; attempting to measure if we belong.
However, God’s grace allows us to function in a myriad of ways that are uniquely personal.
From our text scripture, it is very probable that Ananias and his wife Sapphira sold their piece of land out of envy that Joses had been named Barnabas (Son of Consolation) because of his generosity.
Your own gift is more than enough, and once you uncover that gift, you can walk in freedom, grace and gratitude.
They wanted to be recognized as well but functioned out of fear and fear always causes people to hold back.
Go ahead and be what you were made to be, without comparing yourself with others, or trying to be something you are not.
Embrace this grace for it will release a God-given confidence in you for the moment and make a place for you in the body.
Glory!
