Are You Living in Your Sweet Spot?



A few years ago, I read the book, Cure for the Common Life, by Max Lucado and I love to pick the book up from time to time, and read it again. Mr. Lucado writes "God endows us with gifts so we can make Him known. Period. God endues the Olympian with speed, the salesman with savvy, the surgeon with skill. Why? For gold medals. closed sales or healed bodies? Only partially.

The big answer is to make a big to-do out of God. Brandish Him! Herald Him! God has given gifts to each of you from His great variety of spiritual gifts. Manage them well... Then God will be given glory (1 Peter 4: 10-11 NLT)
