A Prayer for March
Dear Lord, Thank You, for providing me a place of comfort and rest. I know that when I am overwhelmed by the things in this world, I can always find rest in your presence. Help me to always seek out your wisdom and learn to discern those things that pull me away from you and avoid them. Amen
Using Your Gifts for God in March
God created each of us with unique abilities and talents, not by accident, but with a specific purpose in mind.
Your gifts are a reflection of His creativity and love, and He wants you to use them to bring Him glory.
Whether you excel in leadership, teaching, music, hospitality, or something else entirely, your gifts are part of a larger picture—a way to serve others and point them to Christ.
The Bible reminds us in 1 Peter 4:10, “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.”
This means our gifts aren’t meant to be hidden or used selfishly; they are tools entrusted to us by God to share His love and truth with the world.
Sometimes it’s easy to fall into the trap of comparison or self-doubt, thinking that our gifts aren’t significant enough or that someone else could do it better.
But God doesn’t call us to compare; He calls us to faithfulness. What matters to Him is not the size or visibility of our gifts but our willingness to use them with a heart of humility and obedience.
Even small acts done in love can have an eternal impact when they’re surrendered to Him.
So whether you’re raising children, creating art, writing a blog, volunteering at church, or encouraging a friend, know that God is delighted when you honor Him with what He has entrusted to you.
Every gift, no matter how big or small, is an opportunity to reflect His goodness and point others to His glory.
