There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit;
there are different forms of service but the same Lord;
there are different workings but the same God
who produces all of them in everyone.
To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit.
1 Corinthians 12:3-7
At the Confirmation on Saturday, Msgr. McNamara provoked the newly confirmed to consider how each of us is unique, one-of-a kind. God created each of us as individuals.
At any point in time, even this minute no one else in the world is thinking what you are thinking. Science bears this out. That is the value of DNA analysis. You are WONDERful!
Pentecost is about the gifts God has given each of us. God has plans for each of us, 'He knew us in our mother’s womb.'
What gifts has God given to you?
Who did God create you to be?
