Blessed with spiritual gifts when we answer the call from God to live in fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord!

Paul, called to be an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God,

and Sosthenes our brother,

to the Church of God that is in Corinth,

to you who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be holy,

with all those everywhere who call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,

their Lord and ours.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father

and the Lord Jesus Christ.

I give thanks to my God always on your account

for the grace of God bestowed on you in Christ Jesus,

that in him you were enriched in every way,

with all discourse and all knowledge,

as the testimony to Christ was confirmed among you,

so that you are not lacking in any spiritual gift

as you wait for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

He will keep you firm to the end,

irreproachable on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

God is faithful,

and by him you were called to fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

~1 Corinthians 1:1-9

We are blessed and given spiritual gifts from God, we are called to use them to live in fellowship with His son Jesus Christ. We are called to follow Him, to reflect Him, and to imitate Him! God is faithful when we put all our trust in Him! God is calling us! Calling us to follow His son Jesus! Will you answer the call? Will you take up your cross too? Will you follow Jesus, so to have life eternal in Heaven with Him! The blessings and miracles from God and His promise of following His son Jesus are gifts! Will you take them? Open them? Follow them? Reflect and imitate them! Jesus is our gift! Let His Holy Spirit live in you!
