Fame Vs. Gifts & Talent

from Take What You Need...Leave The Rest Hosted by Maribel

What if nobody ever knows your name? Would you still use your gift? In Episode 7 of Take What You Need… Leave the Rest, we're separating something that too many of us have confused: having a God-given gift and becoming rich or famous because of it are NOT the same thing. Maybe you can sing, write, paint, direct, create, build or see things in a way other people can't. But somewhere along the way, somebody laughed. Somebody told you to be realistic. Somebody said people like you don't make it. Or maybe you convinced yourself there was no point in developing your gift if it wasn't going to make you money. We're challenging that thinking. I share what I learned when I refused to back down during a directing class, the surprising lesson in Emily Dickinson's legacy, what the Bible says about using what we've been given, and why I'm now working to preserve more than 50 handwritten songs composed by my 73-year-old uncle. Because maybe the goal isn't fame. Maybe it's impact. Maybe it's fulfillment. Maybe it's service. Maybe it's legacy. And maybe the gift itself was already valuable before anybody applauded. 🎙️ Real Talk. Real Life. Real You. Your gift doesn't need fame to prove its value. Use it. Develop it. Don't bury it. Take what you need… leave the rest. ❤️
