You Have A Special Gift
/“Looking back you realize that a very special person passed briefly through your life - and it was you. It is not too late to find that person again.”
~ Robert Brault
Have you ever seen a Ladybird, lady cow, or a lady beetle? These are just several names to describe ladybugs.
Ladybugs are unique. Did you know not all ladybugs are “ladies?” There are male and female ladybugs. I think the most familiar thought we all have regarding ladybugs is the red color dome-shaped bodies with black spots. However, did you know that ladybugs can be red, yellow, or orange with black, white, or yellow spots. Once you see one, you will probably see others. This may cause people to dislike the ladybug.
Unless you have studied the ladybug species, the facts above are probably the only facts you are familiar with. But, the ladybug has more value.
Then and even now, some gardeners and farmers consider the lady to be a miracle from God.
Why?
Maybe, because of the most interesting fact about ladybugs. The gardeners and farmers think they are miracles because ladybugs save their livelihoods by eating insects that damage their vegetative crops.
How does this apply to you and I?
When we look closely at our lives, we will discover individual or multiple gifts. There are many things you may be good at, but at least one of your gifts will be a blessing to someone else.
Whatever you do, stay true to gifts and the weirdness you were created with.
Just as ladybugs are miracles to farmers and gardeners, you too are a miracle to someone else. If you don’t think so, I know at least two parties that would disagree with you. One, would be our Creator who doesn’t create junk. Second, would be you, if you look deep within and listen to your inner weird voice.
What do you have to lose by discovering your special gift? Who can stop you from discovering this gift? Lastly, who can stop you from utilizing this gift to benefit our beautiful world and yourself?
You have a special gift!
Action: Sit down and take some time to think about those things you are really good at doing. After you discover those things, write them down and design a plan to develop them.
Question(s): What is your special gift? (Please leave a comment below.)
