Gift of Gab is NOT a Spiritual Gift - who knew?

Written By Jeff Larson
Christian Cartoon featuring the gifts of the Spirit, 1 Corinthians 12:1-7, and noting the Gift of Gab is not included

1 Corinthians 12:7-11

Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. To one there is given through the Spirit a message of

  • WISDOM, to another a message of

  • KNOWLEDGE by means of the same Spirit, to another

  • FAITH by the same Spirit, to another gifts of

  • HEALING by that one Spirit, to another

  • MIRACLES, to another

  • PROPHESY, to another

  • distinguishing between spirits, to another

  • SPEAKING IN TONGUES, and to still another the

  • INTERPRETING TONGUES.

    All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.

Note: No mention regarding those with the Gift of Gab

MY THOUGHTS ;

It is amazing (and sometimes funny) how clearly God uses the spiritual gifts in 1 Corinthians 12:7-11. My little poke at Myrna in the cartoon above doesn’t diminish the beautiful truth that every believer is gifted differently to serve in the Body of Christ.

Some of us got the gift of encouragement, some teaching, some mercy, some administration… and then there’s Myrna with her very loud, very active Gift of Gab 😂

SHARE IN THE COMMENTS: Where have you seen God gift you (or someone you know) to serve Him? I’m a cartoonist, so I’m still trying to figure out exactly which category that falls into!

Maybe Myrna and I can form a support group.

P.S. If this cartoon made you smile (or laugh out loud), please consider a DONATION to help keep the clean humor and God’s truth flowing.

God bless you all in the amazing ways He chooses to use you. One body, many parts. In all things to God be the Glory.
