One of my favorite scrabble tiles is the blank. It has no point value but it can be used in the place of any letter that I need to make a word. It is sad that so many Christians fail to see their true value. Like the blank tile, it is only when we allow the Lord to use us that we learn our true worth.

“Are not two sparrows sold for a cent? And yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. “But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. “So do not fear; you are more valuable than many sparrows. Matthew 10:29-31

As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.  1 Peter 4:10 (NASB)

In Scrabble® and games based on the same principle you are given a certain number of letters to form words of varying value.  You may interact with tiles already in play but otherwise are limited to what you have been given.  One of the four lists of “Spiritual Gifts” follows the above verse.  All believers have at least one gift.  We are responsible to get the most value out of the gift that we have.  Look at what you have been given and “play your tiles” well.    SBS
