Discover your God-given talents

Sharon Slaton Howell

We all have talents. 

How can such a statement be true? Because each and every one of us is God’s offspring and reflects the infinite capabilities of God, good. Knowing this great fact has the effect of awakening in a person hope, confidence, and a new sense of worth.

I saw this awakening in a young woman I once knew. She saw me reading one day and asked about the book. I told her it was Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, which is the Christian Science textbook. She knew nothing about the book or about Christian Science, so I told her a little of what it teaches and some of what my husband and I had experienced in practicing its teachings. She asked if she could borrow the book; I had an extra copy, which I gladly gave to her.
