We are all given gifts and talents, what we do with them is up to us. Either we use them to give and bring glory to God or to ourselves. It's easy to get caught up in the words of affirmations and awards etc. To be honest that's how Satan(Lucifer) got caught up and cast out of heaven. Christmas is here and gone, the greatest gift given to us and the reason for the season. So how are you using your gift, is it to glorify the one who made it possible for our gifts or is it for the one who desires to separate us from God.
