2. Pajama Morning The Gifts

3. God's gift to…?

4. You are the gift You are gifted And in your giftedness Are a gift from God

5. Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone

6. To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good…All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good…All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills

7. For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ…

8. For the body does not consist of one member but of many. If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body.

9. And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body

10. If the whole body were an eye, where would be the sense of hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell?

11. But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose… You are gifted And a gift

12. The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you”

13. On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable…

14. …and on those parts of the body that we think less honorable we bestow the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty…

15. …which our more presentable parts do not require.

16. But God has so composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it, that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another

17. If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together We do life together

18. You are gifted You are a gift from God To People For God's glory and your joy

19. You are gifted You are a gift from God To People (Here then There) For God's glory and your joy

20. Gifts look to give Not receive "For the common good…" Our greatest needs are met When we're serving

21. Gifts always have something to offer Someone needs What you have Because of Jesus

22. "Thank You" replaces "Why didn't You…" Contentment and Gratitude With Faith Empower you to make a Difference

23. Always leads to Unity Growth and God's Glory And makes it such a great place To do life together

24. "By the way... I think it's pretty awesome... we've only been attending Layman since October. And for the first time in my whole life of attending church- I am really bummed to miss it!

25. …PJ day or not, I have been looking forward to Sunday church times at Layman! Good people; good message; amazing God"

26. "I know what you mean about actually missing church. I never felt that way before Layman, but I really feel like something is missing when I miss a week here…

27. …And it's more than just the message; listening to the podcast is nice, but not the same"

28. Thank you for serving! SO Privileged to Serve with You
