The problem with the focus on spiritual gifts is that it becomes all about self.

Everything that is good, everything that is pure, everything that is of God points to Christ and to His glory, not our own.

It is in our weakness that He is strong. It isn't about self edification about 'our gifts' but all about God's glory and everything points to Christ and His gift of grace.

Any gift that a person has needs to be served in humility and without self.

We are not to covet anything.

We do not wield the power of the Spirit. We are vessels of love and ambassadors of Christ. We are to become like Christ. He is humble and gentle in spirit.

Again, it is through our weakness that He is strong. It is through our struggles that His light and mercy shines.
