The Gift

How do you use your gift For God loves to give them Oh the so many beautiful voices He has given to sing his praise That began in a small church Are used to lead people away But they will give him praise For the entertainment of the world As if he gave it to them to gain The treasures that will be left behind The greatest voice I have ever heard Is one that started singing for the world But cried out to his savior And then he sang for the one that gave him life This voice will bring comfort to the soul So many will be given a gift to write for God But not many will like or give them praise So they confide to the world to receive self praise There are many gifts that are given It's just do you receive self praise Or do seek to give it all to God And you preachers that tell your followers God will bless you in riches of the this world How foolish could one not see That is living in Christ this to be what we seek The greatest gift you will ever inherit Is the holy spirit dwelling within Molding and creating a new creation That gives a seal unto eternal life

Too many of us never recognize our gifts, and for those that do, too few use them for good purposes. It is a shame... You give the reader much to ponder here in this poem... Keep up the great writing, Stephan!

Thanks all praise to God, this is the only reason I write, to express what He has done in my life and hope someone else may seek His love and guidance

All of us are blessed with gifts galore. Those who discern that they are from God are blessed. Those who use those gifts to glorify God are more blessed! Thanks for sharing your beautiful poem, dear Stephen !
