"'The Lord has gifted Bezalel, Oholiab, and the other skilled craftsmen with wisdom and ability to perform any task involved in building the sanctuary. Let them construct and furnish the Tabernacle, just as the Lord has commanded.' So Moses summoned Bezalel and Oholiab and all the others who were specially gifted by the Lord and were eager to get to work." Exodus 36:1-2 NLT
The skilled craftsmanship of Bezalel and Oholiab was a gift from the Lord. As surely as God had gifted Moses to lead and Aaron to speak God had gifted these men and others like them to construct the sanctuary. Every ability is a gift from God and can be used in God's service to glorify Him. Not only were these men gifted in craftsmanship but they were "eager to get to work." As important as the gift is the willingness and eagerness to use it in God's service. The same Spirit who enables the service inspires the willingness in the hearts of those who are yielded to Him. What abilities do you have? Ask God how He would use them in His service for His glory and then yield yourself to Him.
Father, every ability I have is a gift from you. I am who I am, I have what I have, and I can do what I can do because of Your gracious gift. Guide me to use my abilities in Your service for Your glory.
I'm praying for you.

Our Father who art in Heaven hallowed be thine name!!!!! LOve in Christ Francie
