More poems about Gifts & Talents.

OUR TALENTS
With every gift and talent upon
us given
We should use it to glorify God
in heaven,
For these talents are His in our
human hands,
And if we use them well His greatness
expands.
As we take the glory we should praise
God above,
Thank Him for these gifts given to us
in love,
Never hide them for we then deny His
kind gift,
But use them wisely and give others a
needed lift.
A voice of an angel can cheer sorrow and
chase fear away,
A painter can depict a scene and brighten a
dull day,
A poet can make words flow and so help
someone heal,
And a dancer can carry you far away give
great appeal.
The listener can let words flow from a
broken heart,
In fact, each talent can do their own
important part,
Many talents not mentioned but I really must
ever say
We should thank God for each one so it won’t
go away.
