A great article from Roger Sheck, Worship pastor of Eastridge Covenant Church in Clackamas OR.

A good reminder that true humility is not a matter of “hiding” or “denying” your God-given gifts, but rather offering them up in humble service. Romans 12:3 reminds us of the need to look on ourselves with “sober judgement, in accordance with the faith that God has distributed to each of you.”

Enjoy!

Rooting for you,

Andrew

Great post. I struggle with this a lot – I never know what to do with myself when everything comes together in the right way. I can barely make eye contact with the people who feel led to affirm my talents after the worship service!

It’s a slow process, but I’m learning to humbly accept encouragement and even praise (I feel like I should use a different word!), bearing in mind that it’s God who is equipping me for this specific calling.
