What is my spiritual gift?
Here's the answer:
God can help you figure out your spiritual gifts.
A spiritual gift is a special skill the Holy Spirit gives to all those who put their trust in Jesus. So, if you've accepted Jesus Christ, you have a spiritual gift and you can use it to serve God.
What is my spiritual gift? How do I find out?
• Talk to God about it. God doesn’t want your gift to remain a mystery, so ask Him to help you develop your gift and use it to help others.
• Understand the purpose of spiritual gifts. Study why God gives us spiritual gifts and then you'll be more likely to understand your gift (see 1 Corinthians 12 for more info).
• Pay attention. Often times, our spiritual gifts are something we really enjoy doing. If you really enjoy helping other people or really like to teach your friends, God may be developing those gifts in you.
• Ask someone you respect. Your Sunday School teacher, pastor, or parent might have an idea what gifts you have. Ask them to help you try different areas of service.
Spiritual gifts aren’t just for grownups! Kids have gifts too. As you grow up, your gifts may change a little bit. No matter what gift you have, you can be sure that God uses people who are available to Him.
