I Peter 4:10 “ As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” NAS says “As each one has received a special gift.”
Each one of us has a special gift that God has given us. A gift that is one of our assets to help each other for a better and harmonious relationship towards success.
