To have a gift is a wonderful thing, your spirit will lift and your heart will sing

I just want to know what it's for.

That's part of a song from a Veggie Tale's movie- "Lord of the Beans", a play off "Lord of the Rings".

I love the LTR trilogy, but this little spoof is wonderful as well! Who am I kidding? I love all things Veggie Tales!

Anyway, the point of the movie is Toto Baggypants is given a gift of a magical bean that can grant any wish. And throughout the movie he is trying to find out what his gift is for, so he can use it wisely. All the while the Dark Lord Scaryman is trying to steal it from him, with his evil minions- the Sporks!
The movie is adorable, hilarious, and thought provoking.

Pair it with my Pastor's message about using our gifts the way God wants us to, and you come to this post...
Something I've been thinking about for a very long time.

What is my gift that God wants me to use for others?

I know I have a few talents. A few skills. A few hobbies.
But how could any of those be used to glorify God?
I just don't know.

I don't feel like I'm the kind of person that will be sending dresses to Africa. I'm more of a community helper than a missionary. I suppose if God REALLY wants me to do this, then I would, but it's just not my style.
I can't see how sewing something for a family in need is going to be helpful. I can't afford to build a cloth diaper stash for a needy family, especially when there's no guarantee they'll even use them.
I don't want to better my crocheting skills to make hats for infants- not because I have anything against it, I just don't really enjoy crocheting... or knitting for that matter.

I have other skills besides crafting, but again, I'm just not sure how I'm supposed to use them FOR God.
Kinda makes me feel lost.
