God Gives Me Talents to Bless Others

November 11, 2017 By Mary Hill 3 Comments

 

My talents are few, but I use them for God.

I love to write and share my photography to point others to Him.

I also love to write poetry and short stories.

I hope I have blessed you through the years as God blesses me with inspiration to share.

Here are just a few of my favorite posts from years past. I hope they bless you today. God favored me with His Holy Spirit’s leading as I wrote.

Quiet Peace in Jesus

Selah: Pause and Be Still

Autumn Dance

Fall Brilliance — a Poem

Free Indeed

Five Minute Friday: The Blue Skies We All Share

Snow Whispers from God

Being Still is a Gift

 

Writing blesses me daily.

I worship Jesus with my poetry and writing. He is the reason I write.

My mission for my blog centers around reaching my readers with the hope we can find in Jesus and His Gospel. He writes His story on my heart daily.

Even as I feel blessed to share my writing, my gratitude also extends to my readers.

My readers bless me daily with their support and encouragement.

I leave you with some of my favorite photos.

 

Snow gently envelops everything.

 

 

 

 


This post continues my special series celebrating gratitude. As we approach the Holy Season of Advent, first I fix my mind on thankfulness. Thankfulness is a state of being. It is part of the cross that we deliberately choose to pick up each day as we follow Christ. To celebrate Thankfulness, I have created a Fall Bible study and journey that I invite you to join with me.

As I write this series, I am also joining Jennifer Dukes Lee’s 30 Days of Gratitude Challenge. Her beautiful graphic above lists 30 daily gratitude topics on which I will base each day’s post this month.

Even though the posts will be short, I plan to pack them with inspiration and Scriptural truths as we lead up to the Thanksgiving holidays and then flow into Christmas. This series is my gift to you.

 

 

Also linking up with these great weekly blog hops listed on  Linkup Parties page. Be sure to check it out.
