When i was in high school i ask myself…why i don’t have talent to play piano and sing? what is my talent and gift? i dunno!
When i became a Christian i know the differences between talents and gifts. Both are gifts from God and grow in effectiveness with use.
I don’t have talent but i have gifts God’s given me. :P
1- *The Gift of Listening*….But you must REALLY listen. No interrupting, no daydreaming, no planning your response. Just listening.
2- *The Gift of Affection*….Be generous with appropriate hugs, kisses, pats on the back and handholds. Let these small actions demonstrate the love you have for family and friends.
3- *The Gift of Laughter*….Clip cartoons. Share articles and funny stories. Your gift will say, “I love to laugh with you.”
4- *The Gift of a Written Note*….It can be simple. “Thanks for the help” note or a full sonnet. A brief handwritten note may be remembered for a lifetime, and may even change a life.
5- *The Gift of a Compliment*….A simple and sincere, “You look great in red,” “You did a super job” or “That was a wonderful meal” can make someone’s day.
6- *The Gift of a Favor*….Every day, go out of your way to do something kind.
7- *The Gift of Solitude*….There are times when we want nothing better than to be left alone. Be sensitive to those times and give the gift of solitude to others.
8- *The Gift of a Cheerful Disposition*….The easiest way to feel good is to extend a kind word to someone, really it’s not that hard to say, Hello or Thank You.

Waving to all of you and have a wonderful week. :)
