OWL OR FALCON?

LULU PE KO E FALAKONE

ROMANS 12:6

However, since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to use them properly: if prophecy, in proportion to one’s faith;

ROMANS 12:6

Pea ko eni, ‘i he‘etau ma‘u ‘a e ngaahi mafai fakalaumālie, ‘a ia ‘oku faikehekehe ‘o fakatatau ki he kelesi ‘oku foaki mai, ko ia, kapau ko e malanga-palofisai ia, pea tau fai ke hoa mo ‘etau tui;

 

Soli Deo Gloria – To the Glory of God Alone

Ki he Langilangi ‘o e ‘Otua Tokotaha pe   

Some men never can do much for God in the way which they would prefer, for they were never cut out for the work. Owls will never rival falcons by daylight, but then falcons would be lost in the enterprise of hunting barns at night for rats and mice. Each creature is not only good, but "very good" in its own place, fulfilling its own office; out of that place, it may become a nuisance.

Friend, be true to your own destiny! One man would make a splendid preacher of downright hard-hitting Saxon; why must he ruin himself by cultivating an ornate style? Another attempting to be extremely simple would throw himself away, for he is florid by nature; why should he not follow his bent? Apollos has the gift of eloquence; why must he copy blunt Cephas? Every man in his own order. It seems to me that nowadays, every man prefers his own disorder. Let each man find out what God wants him to do, and then let him do it, or die in the attempt.
