Holden's Heart
Page 15
In Holden’s Heart, the protagonist uses his talent to become quite wealthy. While he does donate to those in need, he realizes that his past holds many flaws that he’d like to keep hidden. This hinders him in many ways. But when he sets aside his self-centered fear, God is able to put him in a position to help many.
Have you ever felt as if you have no useful talent or gift? Perhaps you feel as if your flaws eliminate you from being worthy to use your gifts. This is not the case! God uses flawed people all the time. If He didn’t, none of us could be used.
When you feel as if you have no talent that can be used for God, remember Peter and Andrew. Catching fish did not seem like a useful talent in the realm of spirituality, yet God made them “fishers of men.” Your ordinary or worldly talent can be used to further the Kingdom of God. Even if you don’t see it or don’t know how, God does. All you have to do is surrender to His will. Quit telling yourself you’re worthless or ineffective. Start telling God, “use me any way you can”. Soon, your non-gifts will shine, and your situation and the situations of those around you will be imbued with the goodness of God.
LORD, HELP ME TO SEE AND USE MY SKILLS AND TALENTS TO BRING OUT THE BEST IN OTHER PEOPLE. IN JESUS’ NAME I PRAY, AMEN.
