Join us today as we conclude our study of this powerful, ancient record with a study of the final chapter of Moroni and his final words. We consider the principle of gifts of the Spirit and reflect on how we can discover our gifts.
John C Pingree: "[D]iscover and develop spiritual gifts. Heavenly Father gave us these gifts to help us identify, perform, and enjoy the work He has for us.
Some of us wonder, 'Do I have any gifts?' Again, the answer is yes! 'To every man [and woman] is given a gift by the Spirit of God … that all may be profited thereby'. A number of spiritual gifts are documented in scripture but there are many others. Some might include having compassion, expressing hope, relating well with people, organizing effectively, speaking or writing persuasively, teaching clearly, and working hard.
So how do we come to know our gifts? We can reference our patriarchal blessing, ask those who know us best, and personally identify what we are naturally good at and enjoy. Most important, we can ask God. He knows our gifts, since He gave them to us.
As we discover our gifts, we have a responsibility to develop them. Even Jesus Christ 'received not of the fulness at first, but [developed] from grace to grace'.”
