“Father, please show me my sin.”
Once in a while one of my Sons will comment, “Dad you used
to …Why don’t you do that anymore?” The
truth is neglect. I have gifts and
talents that I do not use as often as I should.
I tell myself that there is not time but that is just not true.
There are things I can do that benefit others or enrich my
life that I just do not do. God wants me
to us my gifts to serve him and when I “bury” them that is not possible. I must remember to embrace the good things in
my being and develop them.
This seems small but it is big. It is huge.
I have neglected some things out of fear. I have neglected some out of pride. This is just not an acceptable use of who I
am and who I am created to be in Christ.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer
who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store."

I think about this sometimes - like how so many high school students play a sport and play an instrument, but both fall by the wayside as soon as college.
