Key Verse:
“And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.” Matthew 25:15
Message
A talent is something that you are born with which gives you unique skills and abilities. Talent is set apart from knowledge in that it is not a learned behaviour, although it can be strengthened through practice. The Bible tells us that we are all born with distinct talents and gifts that set us apart from each other. When you discover the talents that God has given you, and you use them to glorify Him, you will experience a full life. Our loving God wants us to be whole and complete and it is through our talents that we can find our unique calling in life!
