4There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. 5There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. 6There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work.
7Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. 8To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, 9to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, 10to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues,a and to still another the interpretation of tongues.b 11All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.
1 Corinthians 12 

     What spiritual gift do you possess?  I have found my gift to be faith.  How have you been blessed by God through the Holy Spirit?  Search yourself and spend time thinking on this.  Ask others in the faith what their opinion is.  It is important that you learn your gift for it is the gift our Lord wants you to use to serve him and his children.  Be strong, go forward with confidence and passion in our Lord.  Learn the beauty of your gift and use it to it's fullest.  Let our Lord be your power and strength through this gift.  He definitely does not leave us without the tools to serve him and be an asset to his kingdom's growth.  You are blessed...In turn, be a blessing to others.  Our Lord is pouring out his power through your gift.  Exert that power with love and compassion and great humility for him who sacrificed it all for us. And do it with a warm smile on that beautiful face God has blessed you with.  AMEN
