TALENT DISCOVERY

Out there are so many talents wasting away right before our very own eyes. Valuable talents inculcated in humanity that can change our facets of life for good. What are our plans to unveil these abundant goodies that are meant to transform our generation and generations to come? How can we discover and uncover these special potentials embedded in us. We can do this by first of all discovering who we are and why we are in existence on earth. In other words, we must strive to know our purpose on earth. It is said that when the purpose of a thing is not known, abuse is inevitable. When we have known our purpose on earth, it creates in us a sense of belonging and worth thereby helping us unveil the undiscovered potentials in us.

Everyone is important and unique before God. In fact, the Bible says we are wonderfully made. Before God, everybody is a participant and not a spectator.  We are expected to be a participant of the revolution that will help establish God’s kingdom on earth through the discovery of the untapped resources He has put in us.

In the beginning when God created man, He instructs man to be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth and to dominate it. Therefore, it is time for us to discover our abilities so that we can overcome our disabilities. By so doing, we can fulfil our purpose in life through our talents.

 As it is noted in God’s word that our gifts/talents will make room for us and make us stand before kings /important personalities. That means when we discover and use our talents, it will put us in vital positions that will enable us fulfil purpose on earth to the glory of God. According to the Bible, God has made everything beautiful in its time and that there is time for everything. This means that everything has its timing. We must be able to know our timing because every talent has its discovery time, secondly is the development phase. This is the stage when we had already have discovered our talent(s).

During this time these talents should be nurtured, used in privacy and in our local environment firstly before we can showcase it to the world. As they say, practice makes perfect.

People who value our values are instrumental to our excellence in life. Therefore we should pitch our tenths around people who value our worth and potentials because we will get inspiration and encouragements from them. At this stage of our talent development, there are some people we must avoid even some of your closest friends because your friends know you too well to give you approval of accomplishing your God given purpose in life.

The time for manifestation and validation of your talents/gifts comes next when your talents will be showcased to world to see and give glory to God.

The elapsing time comes last which is the fading away time. This is the time when you are no longer able to display your talents for some reasons but your talent speaks for itself and perhaps you are getting older, or because you did not start on time or because you misused your time. When the fading time comes, you may no longer be relevant and appreciated.

All these times should be noted with great sensitivity and caution so that we do not launch out before our time, the wrong time, misuse our time or when the time has elapsed.

It is when we discover that we can recover and it is when we recover that we can achieve our God given purpose on earth. Ponder on these words.
