Greater understanding

We're not supposed to be alike. . . None of us were given all the gifts of God, but we were each given at least one spiritual gift. And the reason seems obvious. The Lord needs a full spectrum of talent dedicated to his work. He also wants us to work together, rejoicing in each other's strengths and together compensating for each other's weaknesses. That is why comparing, competing and categorizing--traps we seem to fall in naturally and repeatedly--are deadly...

There is no shortage of mountains to climb. & as painful & difficult as some of these tests of endurance, sheer will, & faith are, they are often the catalyst to our greater understanding.
