A Blessing to Grow in Your Gifts

You’re gifted,

Child of God,

You’re gifted.

I bless you to know

Your gifts,

For God to grow

Your gifts,

And for God to show

His love through your gifts.

“Just as the body is one

And has many members,

And all the members of the body,

Though many,

Are one body,

So it is with Christ.” (1 Cor. 12:12, ESV)

The eye needs the hand.

The head needs the foot.

God’s people need you

Because, the old spiritual says,

“Toe bone connected to the foot bone,

Foot bone connected to the heel bone,

Heel bone connected to the ankle bone,

Ankle bone connected to the leg bone….”

Without your gifts at work,

Something’s falling apart.

You’re gifted, beloved,

Gifted.
