and Aaron relayed everything the LORD had said to Moses. And Moses performed the signs before the people, — Exod 4:30 BSB

One of Moses’ excuses when God called him to deliver His people was that he wasn’t a good speaker. God responded by providing Aaron as his spokesman. So throughout their history, Moses remained mostly silent, while Aaron’s voice carried the message. Each fulfilled their unique role.

This is how God’s work is always done. No one person has all the gifts. One may lack speaking skills but have wisdom, heart, and leadership. Another may be eloquent but lack the qualities of the first. Together, they accomplish great things.

In the church, some can sing, while others teach or offer comfort to the sick. Some handle business matters, while others have the gift of generosity. There’s a diversity of gifts, but when everyone works together, all the necessary tasks are covered. Don’t worry if you lack a gift someone else has. You have a gift, and God wants you to use it!
