Good Managers of God's Gifts (1PE 4:7-11)

[4:7] The end of all things is near. You must be self-controlled and alert, to be able to pray.

[4:8] Above everything, love one another earnestly, because love covers over many sins.

[4:9] Open your homes to each other without complaining.

[4:10] Each one, as a good manager of God's different gifts, must use for the good of others the special gift he has received from God.

[4:11] Those who preach must preach God's messages; those who serve must serve with the strength that God gives them, so that in all things praise may be given to God through Jesus Christ, to whom belong glory and power forever and ever. Amen.
