There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit;
there are different forms of service but the same Lord;
there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone.
To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit.
- To one is given through the Spirit the expression of wisdom;
- to another the expression of knowledge according to the same Spirit;
- to another faith by the same Spirit;
- to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit;
- to another mighty deeds;
- to another prophecy;
- to another discernment of spirits;
- to another varieties of tongues;
- to another interpretation of tongues.
But one and the same Spirit produces all of these, distributing them individually to each person as he wishes. (1 Corinthians 12:4-11 NABRE)
Today, I will be grateful for the gifts of the Spirit.
Saint Anthony of Egypt, whose hermit life reminds us of the absoluteness of our break with sin and the totality of our commitment to Christ, pray for us.
