Prayer Reflection: 1 Corinthians
12:4-11
There are different kinds of spiritual gifts,
but the same Spirit. 1
Cor. 12:4
Was Puccini’s
music for his ears alone?
Or was Starry Night only for Van Gogh’s eyes?
Are discerners of spirits
better than those who prophesy?
Is it better to be a healer than a preacher?
Was Mother Teresa more important
than the Jesuit brother who
held the door?
Is red a better than blue?
All gifts are
from the same Spirit.
They are each a part of the whole
and given to each of us for each other
or for the common good.
Lord, help us understand.
Thank you for all
gifts.
