Know Your Knack

Know Your Knack

Make a careful exploration of who you are and the work
you have been given, and then sink yourself into that.

Galatians 6:4 MSG

God never prefabs or mass-produces people. No slapdash shaping. “I make all things new,” he declares (Rev. 21:5 NKJV). He didn’t hand you your granddad’s bag or your aunt’s life; he personally and deliberately packed you. . . .

You can do something no one else can do in a fashion no one else can do it. Exploring and extracting your uniqueness excites you, honors God, and expands his kingdom. So “make a careful exploration of who you are and the work you have been given, and then sink yourself into that.”

Discover and deploy your knacks. . . . When you do the most what you do the best, you put a smile on God’s face. What could be better than that?
