—Ephesians 4:7-13
by: Margaret Taylor.
Near the end of His ministry, Jesus told His disciples that after He returned to His Father, they would do greater things than He had done. He would send the Holy Spirit to them to enable them to do those works, because the disciples, as humans, were limited and the work was overwhelming. By the Spirit, Jesus distributed different gifts to each believer so that the people of God, collectively, would be empowered to do the work of ministry around the world. I am so glad God knows exactly what we are called to do and that He gifts each of us accordingly.
