		<description><![CDATA[There are different applications to draw from this thought for today.  One point to make that is in line with yesterday’s TfT is how God values the diversity of instruments and music that each makes.  The conductor looks out over the musicians and waves his wand (all you orchestra people forgive me; I’m sure there’s [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=providen.wordpress.com&amp;blog=402724&amp;post=32&amp;subd=providen&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[1 Peter 4:10 instructs us, “Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God&#8217;s grace in its various forms.”  Reflect with me for a moment on this verse of Scripture.  “Each one.”  Peter does not say “Each apostle” or “Each prophet” or “Each evangelist” or “Each teacher” or “Each [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=providen.wordpress.com&amp;blog=402724&amp;post=31&amp;subd=providen&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
