How is God Working Through You?
In order that we may be true stewards for the service of God, we need to know the charisms with which we were gifted!
First of all, what are charisms?
Charisms are spiritual gifts given to us by the Holy Spirit for the benefit of others and good of the Church. St. Paul mentions charisms in 1 Corinthians, Chapter 12, where he tells us that the Holy Spirit gives these graces to each person individually, as He wills. Since we are one, though with many parts, we are each gifted with different charisms so we can all work together to build up the body of Christ.
How do charisms work?
God delights in using us as channels to bring his graces to others, so when we are operating in the charisms that the Holy Spirit has given us, it is God himself who is moving through us to minister to others.
Keeping this in mind, it's not surprising that when we are using or working in our charisms we will feel energized, be more effective and feel most fulfilled.
How do we discern our charisms?
We encourage you to take a Spiritual Gifts Inventory to discover the areas in which God has gifted you and gain insight into the ways He may want to use you for the good of others. Two options are available:
