What hidden talents are lying dormant within you? Uncle Gene's remarkable story might just inspire you to find out. At 86 years old and battling cancer for over a decade, Gene decided it was time to learn to read music and expand his trumpet-playing abilities beyond the limited songs he knew from his army days."If I don't start now," Gene reasoned, "a year from now I'll be 87 and I still won't know how to read music.".
No matter your age or circumstances, God has placed abilities within you that remain untapped—gifts that can bring joy not only to yourself but to everyone around you. What might you learn today? Your new adventure in learning could become the channel through which God's love shines brightest in your life and community.
