How can we discover our spiritual gift?
Do not set yourself to finding the gift — set yourself to waiting on the Giver. Study the Word, develop the attitude of a servant, be willing to do the tasks no one else wants, and seek to be the last and the least. Learn the lesson the Lord kept teaching His disciples: in God's economy, the way up is the way down.
