God has given you an ordained assignment. And it is important to understand exactly what that assignment and purpose is. You have nothing to do with the choosing of the gifts God has graciously placed in you. Neither do you choose what destiny God designed for you. However, sometimes the choices you make in life can change or determine your path. Knowing what God desires of your future enables and empowers you to walk in fulfillment of His assignment.
According to 1 Corinthians 12:11, God bestows gifts according to His will, and it is our choice to receive those gifts and allow God to use us by adding more gifts, as He wills. "But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased Him." (1 Corinthians 12:18)
Every believer should pray and ask God for clarity of vision and purpose. Speak to God often and allow God to speak to you. Cultivate a heart for hearing the voice of God in your daily life and understanding His purpose with your gifts. Each believer is important to the body of Christ; everyone is significant. And God uses each one of us in our own calling to bring unity, encouragement and edification to the body of Christ - so that when He comes, His church-His Bride will be spotless and ready to meet Him.
