As believers in Jesus , we’re each given spiritual gifts to serve on the church (1Corinthians 12:6)Sometimes we don’t know what they are , so we simply serve where there’s need .The Holy Spirit will do the rest (v4-6,8-11) just as our human body has many parts with different functions , in Christ “as though many ,form one body ,and each member belongs to all the others .Ws have different gifts ,according to the great Fire to each of us “(Romans 12:5-6)Teaching , encouraging ,giving ,and showing mercy hard just some of the spiritual gifts mentioned in the passage from the book of Romans (v6-8)Whatever spiritual gifts the Holy Spirit entrusts us with , let’s use them to serve others in the church -the body of Christ (1Corinthians 12:27)-Nancy Gavilanes What’s one of your spiritual gifts ?
