My hobby is. . . Bible study! I think you already know how I have turned that into a ministry! Another hobby, one I don't do much of because my true passions win out, is crochet. A service I could do with that is to crochet afghans for those in need. I've also thought about the Guideposts Sweater Project which is mostly knitting, which I can do--I like crochet better because it goes faster and if you mess up, it's a LOT easier to correct!--but they have crochet instructions, too. Having never made a sweater it might be something fun and worthwhile to do sometime.

It's hard to type outloud the gifts God has given me, but I praise and thank Him for them with all my heart! My first and foremost passion and gift is worshipping God with my voice and body (bowing, raising arms to Him, dancing), but a very close second for me is studying and teaching God's Word. I desire for all believers to know God intimately and to grow up well in unity and faith, to where they go out in their own ministry to touch the lives of even more souls for the kingdom! I feel almost sent to help tear down the walls human beings within the church have built up to keep themselves from the truth of God. I also have leadership giftings and a heart for prayer (the connection to hear and learn from God kind, more than intercessory prayer, which I'm working to stretch those muscles into more as well). I pray continiously for the greater gifts that will reveal God's glory and love to others in real ways! In using all these gifts together, I could disciple others personally, or in groups, teaching them God's Word and then sending them out in their callings, keeping them supported, encouraged, and accountable. In wherever God leads me to serve Him, I will humbly follow with a grateful heart and serve with all I am... because He gave His life for me!

I hope more people comment here too, I'd love to see what others are gifted with and how they can use it for God's glory!
