God designed each human being with unique talents, gifts, and abilities that are meant to be developed for His glory. An undeveloped talent is like a fertilized field that never grows, a muscle that withers from atrophy, or a promise unfulfilled. An undeveloped talent is a waste.
What is Michelangelo never studied his craft? There would be no breathtaking mural on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and no masterpiece like David. While you may not believe you have what it takes to craft a Michelangelo masterpiece, God has endowed YOU with talents and skills. Determine to practice and refine your talents and abilities to align with your God given purpose.
Let all the skilled craftsmen among you come and make everything the Lord has commanded. Exodus 35:10
Divas, I encourage you today to take the talents that to the next level…fire it up a notch, and just see how God uses it for His glory! You are amazing my Diva sisters!

Hey Colleen, I’m thrilled that this post has made you think and reassess your life. As for your talents, what are some things that you really love doing and are good at?

Write down the things you are good at and start building on your talents. You can do this…I believe in YOU!!
So true! Thanks so much for the motivation! 🙂 #SitsBlogging
So thrilled that you were inspired Kara. Thank you for your sweet comment!
Thanks for the inspiration. I am trying to find my creative side, and I’m discovering that it gets much better with practice. Even talents need to be developed to become skills.
Ooo Michelle, you’re so right! As we use our talents more and more, the easier they become. Stay creative and be a blessing! Thank you for your comment! <3

It’s always great to inspire others to fully utilize their talents, Kelli.
We’ve all been given special talents, and with prayer and reflection, we can discover our greatest purpose. The task, then, is one of aligning the two, and implementing. It may not always be easy, but if it’s truly your highest commitment, you will never give up… or even let up.
Thank you David for your kind comment. You’re right…it is always great to inspire other to fully utilize their talents! Thank you, again!
