Romans 12:6-8 lists the motivational gifts. I have found that my number one motivational gift is teacher. How many of you are familiar with finding your spiritual gift and if so which of the seven is your top gift? Just curious!

Just for clarification there are 3 different categories of spiritual gifts mentioned in diff. places in the Bible: manifestation, ministry, and motivational. I am asking about the motivational.

It's what you have shown to be an interest to you, as well as what really turns you on. I have a lot of books on Christianity, from application of the Holy Bible, to the academics of the Holy Bible, to the apologetics of the Holy Bible. Far be it for me to read and do nothing about it. I also have the proclivity to explain, practically about anything. Therefore, I teach.

I too believe I have been called to be a teacher. But I also believe that there are other gifts than only the ones found in Romans. The gifts listed in Romans are prophecy, ministry, leading, teaching, etc. But I also think patience is a gift (as some people are more patient than others) and artists have a gift, because they can use their art to spread the word, but being an artist is not listed in Romans. I think anything you have that you can use to help spread the word and bring someone to Jesus can be considered a gift, even if it isn't specifically written down in a "list of gifts."

The ultimate spiritual gift is love.
A very good spiritual gift is the ability of our hearts to know what is right or wrong in the context of our own personal lives. (I don't believe we can know what is right or wrong for anyone but ourselves.)
My personal spiritual gift is a form of healing which I can share with others by listening to what their hearts need to say and then sharing that with them when they are too stressed out to be able to listen to their hearts on their own.
Oh... and some people seem to think I make a damn fine teacher! :D

I feel God has given me several gifts. One is the ability to turn the other cheek and control my anger. Another is patience and testimony for the wonderful things He has done for me He has brought me from some very low places and given me strength and faith to overcome many bad things. My testimony to others of where I came from and where I am has in fact brought people to Christ. I do not share them as often as I should but I know that it is a gift. The greatest gift of all is my ability to love all, good and bad and to remember them in my prayers.

2. I am very gifted at remembering random things.

Well, I'm not Christian. But I find that I'm really good at Weather Magick. Also, I can read auras and have a lot of prophetic dreams.
