The Talent You Have is Not as Important as the Person You Are
Multiply Your Talent = Talent when used correctly is a difference maker, but it is important what we do with that talent. We need to multiply our talent with a focus of being bigger on the inside. When we do that, our talent will sharpen us, itself, and those around us. We also should not allow our talent to define us. The talent we have is not more important than the people we are.

Steward The Gifts He Gives You = Manage and steward the gifts that God gave you. If you are given a lot of talent and skills, you need to use those skills to help those around you. Your strengths are the gifts that God gave you, and those same strengths fit your purpose in life. Once you find your strengths, don't get distracted, steward and manage your gifts wisely.
Think about how much we could teach each other if we all shared our talents. Take some time today to discover your friends, colleagues or family members' talents. Embrace one another to maximize it and make the most of it!
