Infinite Ability

God can do anything, you know — far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! Superabundantly, far over above all that you could ever even ask or think, immeasurably more than you could imagine, infinitely beyond your highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams. According to, and in consequence of the action of His power that is at work within you. And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.

So… “As each of you has received a gift (a particular spiritual talent, a gracious divine endowment), employ it for one another as [befits] good trustees of God's many-sided grace [faithful stewards of the extremely diverse powers and gifts granted to Christians by unmerited favor].

Whoever speaks, [let him do it as one who utters] oracles of God; whoever renders service, [let him do it] as with the strength which God furnishes abundantly, so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ (the Messiah). To Him be the glory and dominion forever and ever (through endless ages). Amen (so be it).” 1 Peter 4:10-11 AMP

10 As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. 11 If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God.

Amen
