Gifted to GO or STAY


As we work our way through the book of Acts we see a church where God has gifted some to Go out and be missionaries and plant churches and preach the gospel in new places. But there ar also others (probably more of these people) who have been gifted to stay. People who live life in their local church and they, encourage, give, pray, administrate, be hospitable... 

Often its the people with the upfront or highly visible gifts that seem to be put in the spot light. Thats why I love reading Romans 16 and seeing all the unkown people who are helping Paul with his mission to the gentiles and church planting.

This is wher we see the truth of ephesians 4 and 1 Cor 12 and how the church opperates as a body. With some highly visible parts and others unseen - but we must all work together to see the continued growth of the church.

How has God gifted you and where is he calling you to serve?  Pray this week that he would reveal these things to you.
