No one comes to this world without a gift or special talent that is not unique to him/her alone. The gifts that we bring are the tools we will use to experience physical life in our own special way. For some it is obvious, for others one may have to look a little deeper. The use of such gifts or talents are also subject to interpretation and are often used for purposes other than what we wanted to experience before birth. Most of us spend a lifetime searching for the connection to them.

Limiting beliefs, just like positive, empowering thoughts, provide a foundation for our experiences and what we demonstrate. Old beliefs can leave us behind – and are often stale, lingering ideas left-over from our childhood experiences or from other areas of life that no longer carry any useful meaning. Abandoning negative assumptions about lack opens room to develop an abundant mindset.

To be effective lighthouses for Jesus Christ, we must be empowered by the Holy Spirit. Without that filling, we will fail miserably in our spiritual lives and accomplish little to reach other people for Christ.
