Wires and More Wires
Luke 12:6,7 When birds are sold, five small birds cost only two pennies. But God does not forget any of them. Yes, God even knows how many hairs you have on your head. Don’t be afraid. You are worth much more than many birds.
Have you ever looked around at other people and thought to yourself, “Wow, they are so incredibly talented.”? And of course, beneath that, as we compare their gifts and abilities to ours, it’s all too easy to come to the conclusion that they’re more talented than we are, is it not?
A few years ago, my wife and I moved into a nineteenth century terrace house that desperately needed re-wiring. It was a really tough job too, in this old house with thick brick walls that were built before electricity was even connected.
Anyhow, as I watched Gary the electrician do his thing, he ran so many wires that went in at one end and came out at the other, I asked him “How do you know which wire’s which, what to connect to what?”
He smiled and said, “I just do”. I’ll never know how he did, but apparently he just has the head for it.
So while he was working, I’d go and play the piano in my study as I often do. I love the piano, because you have to kind of make it sing to bring the music to life – it’s a real skill, and one that I’ve developed over many years of practice.
Gary being Gary, one day stuck his head through my study door and said, “Berni, how do you know which keys to press?” We both had a good laugh.
The point is that we each have different gifts and abilities … and in God’s eyes, they are so incredibly valuable.
Luke 12:6,7 When birds are sold, five small birds cost only two pennies. But God does not forget any of them. Yes, God even knows how many hairs you have on your head. Don’t be afraid. You are worth much more than many birds.
Make no mistake – in God’s eyes, you are so precious.
That’s His Word. Fresh … for you … today.

What a brilliant subject that of GIFTS.
Thank you for allowing space here to comment and may I begin?
Well, you can’t answer that of course but the offer is open to leave a comment so let me raise the topic of supernatural gifts .
Gifts that are subjected to mental health inquiry’s and lots of pressure and bullying too, mental bullying .
So, people do exist with gifts of clairvoyance and clairaudience and they are 2 the family of Clair’s that I am speaking about in my comment here.
Clairvoyance is the gift of vision and God speaks about vision and clairaudience is the gift that enables hearing and the Holy Bible NLV discusses hearing the word of God on almost every page.
clairaudience is telepathy and it is the gift to hear and it’s so cruelly mistaken as being schizophrenia or psychosis sometimes and although those conditions do exist and it’s very difficult to distinguish between what’s a mental illness and what is a supernatural gift .
Life’s so complicated and hard.
I believe that not all gifts are accepted by families or networks or departments and it’s very very difficult for a person whom has always been a lover and not a hater but due to family violence against her, she’s been subjected to cruel torment and torture from what feels and seems like the whole world and that in itself could be diagnosed as paranoia but in truth it’s not see, the man that attacked her within her family preyed upon her mental state and her mental state was subjected to questioning at that time in 1994 and she was NOT psychotic at all for not a day ever had she seen tasted or smelt something that was not there,
And then because she says that, well all the public scrutinisers say that she’s delusional and not accepting that she’s psychotic but in reality she really was not and is not psychotic or anything depicted of a mentally ill person at all.
Her life has been destroyed and damaged and controlled and her family scripted her life – but she has a God given gift.
See when a evil brute attacks the vulnerable hated young woman within that family and she was hated as a young girl too, because she always defended her mother, her mother and father divorced , such a bitter divorce and this young girl was emotionally and mentally and psychologically bullied and abused by her family because she longed to be with her mother .
They used her as their scapegoat.
The uncle attacked her at her weakest and he made her life unbelievably hard for she left the family too seek someone outside to help protect her from that evil brute and she was always spiritual , yes, she had a gift from a very young age for God gave it to her.
Her family made it all look like she was cared for not a bruise or second hand clothes and nobody could understand why she rebelled from her family as a teenager.’
where was her home?
that man hurt her and nobody believed in her because of the psychosis diagnosis that was a terrible untruth .
Her life has been scripted and she’s gifted and can’t tell you how because the police and mental health and child safety get called to her address and take her into custody and drug her up and then her gift that she has is obliterated with disconnectedness from her spirit and that is all she has is GOD and the people have even tried to steal kill and destroy that in her.
Haven’t that family and that man called uncle that attacked her , taken enough?’
They took her friends her ability to earn money because of the lying verdict and made her look repulsive to the world .’
Thank God that he is a good good Father for he has taken up her case and because of her clairaudient gift she did not abuse .. God has not taken from her.’
Like SAMUEL – she has the gift of hearing .
GIFTS ARE SUBJECTED TO RIDICULE AND INSULT AND SLANDER . it’s just not fair sometimes.
