What talents has the Lord entrusted you with, and how can you put these talents to good use?
The Lord has enthrusted me with a beautiful voice to sing and to preach His words. I have not been so good in using my talents and i pray God should forgive me. Sometimes i preach in the church when given the opportunity. I think i will dedicate much time to my fellowship because there i am sure of preaching at every weekly meetings. God helping me, i should be able to render one special number at every sunday service

The Lord entrusted me with the talent to make others laugh and modern dance. When people are down or feeling bad I know how to cheer them up. I can use this talent in a hospital for people having a bad day. My modern dance, I use this in my church, so I dance for the lord and I will dance when I make it to heaven.

The Lord has entrusted me with too many talents to enumerate. I know I could do better with them but I try. I share my knowledge with others and that is one of my best talents-the ability to learn and to apply that knowledge appropriately and to share it with others.

I have wasting enough of time for devil and his agents, thank God who did not kill me during that time, because He have purpose for my life, and that purpose must be fulfill in Jesus name and is already fulfilling right now. I have a gift of discerning spirit, that is the first gift I discovered in my life, secondly, I have compassionate heart, which I always share in my family and to the society, also, I discovered the gift of prophecy that sometimes, whatever I said it must come to pass, I do the work of Evangelism because is the duty of every BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN, I really love to be with children to teach them the way of the Lord, I don't want them to go astray in the sinful world. I want to use the rest of my life to save souls and bring them to the Kingdom of God, and am praying and asking God to fulfill my dreams, that I will not loss focus, I have decided to follow Jesus no turning back, no turning, forward ever, backward never, also I pray that God should help me to fulfill my Ministry in Jesus name.

I have already wasted so much of what My Lord has given me and for this I beg His Mercy. I have been blessed with the gift of Love for others and the financial freedom to spend my time volunteering and helping where I can. We had 4 young souls invite Jesus into their hearts last night at Bible School, Praise God!, and I was a part of this and I am so grateful God has given me the ability to share my love for Him with others. I pray for Him to help me to spread the Word so that others may be saved. This is what we are here for, to praise Our Lord and Our Saviour and to be like Him.

What talents has yhjr Lord entrusted you with, and how can you put these talents to good use?
God gives us talents to use in order to serve Him and not to make me feel or look good in the eyes of people. He gave me intelligence which I can use to study His word and share it in an understanding easy way to others. He gave me a strong and healthy body to be able to help disabled people or to help @ the house with my parents. He gave me a strong personnality that I coulld use against false prophets and to resist the temptation. He gave me patience to be strong and keep my faith in Him no matter what pain M going through. He gave me Love to love myself and acceot myself and others by forgiving them and being thankful for waht I`ve got for what God gave me. Thank you Lord for your Love and mercy upon us, help us know what to do with it and how to use it. In Jesus name I pray Amen

The Parable of the Talents

"For it is like a man, going into another country, who called his own servants, and entrusted his goods to them. To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his own ability. Then he went on his journey. Immediately he who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents. In like manner he also who got the two gained another two. But he who received the one went away and dug in the earth, and hid his lord's money.
"Now after a long time the lord of those servants came, and reconciled accounts with them. He who received the five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, 'Lord, you delivered to me five talents. Behold, I have gained another five talents besides them.'
"His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'
"He also who got the two talents came and said, 'Lord, you delivered to me two talents. Behold, I have gained another two talents besides them.'
"His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'
"He also who had received the one talent came and said, 'Lord, I knew you that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter. I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have what is yours.'
"But his lord answered him, 'You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I didn't sow, and gather where I didn't scatter. You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest. Take away therefore the talent from him, and give it to him who has the ten talents. For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who doesn't have, even that which he has will be taken away. Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'
