'Read Romans 12:3-8. After Paul exhorts the Romans to cooperate with the Holy Spirit’s working to renew their minds, he talks about one of the fundamental changes in the new mind: how we view ourselves. Don’t think of yourself like you used to think but do it with an honest evaluation. This is humbly accepting who we are in relation to God and to other people. We should not compare ourselves to others because it is God who gives. He gives a measure of faith to each one; He gives different gifts; He gives different roles. But whatever we have been given, we should use it by faith with all our heart. Don’t be surprised by diversity in the church! Let’s encourage each other to use our faith and our gifts cheerfully, trusting God with all our hearts.'
