There are no exceptions! YOU have a gift and a calling from God! How is that for an opening "wake up" statement?

Think about that a minute and allow that to get on the inside of you. YOU have a gift and a call from God. That's pretty big when you think about it. Right?
Till I come, give attention to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. Do not neglect the GIFT that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership.
(1 Tim. 4:12-14 NKJV)
Now check this out...
"...Who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began.
(2 Tim. 1:9 NKJV)
So what are we looking at in these two verses? We're looking at the importance of stirring yourself up.

The first thing that you need to understand is that you have a gifting and a calling from God. Secondly, you need to take the time to keep yourself stirred up in the gifts and callings God has given you.

Not shaken! Stirred! That's a good beginning for getting the "L" out of the world!
