Prayer Campaign: Day 26

Praying for Gifts of the Holy Spirit
"Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good."
(1 Corinthians 12:7)
"All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines." (1 Corinthians 12:11) 
If for each of us God has at least one gift , where's yours?
What is or what are your gifts ?
Maybe your gift does not seem important, perhaps it seems small  for you... Maybe your gift , that seems to be little to you,  causes envy and jealousy , because to someone else it can be tremendous ... Yes , because some people want to get some gifts for vanity .
I like to think of gifts as a pack distributor company. 
Whatever your order , your gift is important ... The gift was prepared and packed by the same distributor ... So it comes in a box equal to other boxes, maybe different in size, but  with the same label , closed the same way... 
May be in a big box , can come in a smaller box , but it was wrapped with the same care. 
Except for the size there is nothing different looking the boxes from the outside .
The difference is how you will receive your order .
You may want your gift, or don´t... 
You may wish to open right away  or you can stare at the closed box .
You can open and go right sharing it with others , or you can open the box and hide from people around you .
Let us ask God to prepare us to receive what He wants to give us.
Let us ask Him for understanding to realize that every gift is important.
And also let´s pray asking God to teach us to use our gifts to do good to others according to His will .
