Hello Church Family,
One summer during my teenage years, I decided to learn how to spin a basketball on my finger. I spent the whole summer working on this until I could spin the ball on every finger and even do some tricks with the ball while it was spinning. Yes, I know you are thinking, what a waste of a summer. And for many years in my adult life I would have agreed with you...
A few years ago while I was working at a basketball camp I decided to put this rather useless skill to work for the Kingdom of God. I gathered all the kids in the camp around and began to do these tricks and while I was doing them, I shared my testimony about how Jesus came in and changed my life forever. It was a great opportunity to lead young people to Jesus.
What skill or creative/unusual thing can you do that can be used for the Kingdom of God to attract and introduce people to Jesus? Here are some clips from You Tube involving sand art. I highly encourage you to spend five minutes, you will not be disappointed:

Here is a man who is using his talents for the Kingdom of God. All of us have talents that when placed in the Lord’s hands can make a difference in someone’s life. Are we willing to submit to Him and let the Lord of the Harvest make us useful workers in His fields?
“…making them most of every opportunity.”
In His Service,
