You have gifts that have been given to you by God. They are in you! But just like seeds are made for sowing gifts are made for giving. If you don’t use them they will lay dormant, but if you will give what you’ve got it will began to grow. The gift is multiplied in the giving. The gift in you is not for you but given to you, to flow through you. It’s like you went shopping on God’s card and He’s given you gifts to give. And because He is unlimited, He is able to make you an awesome blessing to the degree that the whole world may be blessed by Gift of God that is in you. The ultimate Gift He has given is the Gift of His Spirit and His Spirit enables you to animate and operate the gifts that are in you. So the question is not "if" you have gifts, everyone does. The question is - what will you do with the Gift of God that is in you?
It’s no wonder the Lord said,
“It is more blessed to give than receive.”
It’s the way of His Kingdom,
And method of increase for those who believe.
Giving is sowing and sowing is growing.
The more that you give, the more that you grow,
Then the more you can sow, wherever ever you go!
The Gift will continue to multiply as long as you’re living,
And be a blessing, as long as you’re giving.
