What better time than Lent to “fan into flame the gift of God.”

Wonderful! Yes… and in this, I see also that we need to encourage one another as well as practice the gifts that God has given us! Beautiful post, Michele ❤
Yes we do need to encourage and use our gifts because this is our moment, our time. There are people who need us now.
