世界上一些著名的鋼琴家包括范克萊本（Van Cliburn）和霍洛維茨（Vladimir Horowitz），都得依賴紐約施坦威公司的首席音樂會技師法蘭茲．摩爾（Franz Mohr），來確保他們演奏用的鋼琴能呈現最美的音色。摩爾是一位鋼琴調音師，他對鋼琴有豐富的知識，再加上數十年經驗所累積的高超技巧而備受追捧。他相信自己的技能是事奉上帝的途徑，所以他經常與鋼琴家和表演人員分享他的信仰。

當以色列人準備建造會幕，並製造敬拜上帝所需的物品時，同樣需要具有專業技能的人（出埃及記31章7-11節）。上帝指派巧匠比撒列做這項工作，「以上帝的靈充滿他，使他有智慧，有聰明，有知識，能做各樣的工，能設計圖案」（3-4節，和合本修訂版），還分派亞何利亞伯和他同工。除了他們的專業技能之外，上帝還藉著聖靈使他們有能力可以做各樣的工。他們願意運用自己獨特的技能來服事上帝，讓以色列人能合宜地敬拜上帝。

無論我們是否具有藝術天賦，我們每個人都擁有上帝所賦予獨特的恩賜（羅馬書12章6節），可以用來服事他人。聖靈會賜給我們能力，使我們可以運用上帝賜給我們的智慧、知識和技能，透過我們的工作來事奉和敬拜上帝。

Some of the most famous pianists in the world, including Van Cliburn and Vladimir Horowitz, relied on Franz Mohr, chief concert technician at Steinway & Sons in New York, to ensure that their concert pianos were ready for performances. A master piano tuner, Mohr was sought after for his intricate knowledge of pianos and great skill developed over decades. Mohr believed his skills were an avenue to serve God, and he regularly shared his faith with pianists and performance staff.

When the nation of Israel was preparing to build the tent of meeting and other items necessary for worship, they needed individuals with expert skills (Exodus 31:7-11). God appointed two skilled artisans, Bezalel and Oholiab, to do the work and filled them with the “Spirit of God, with wisdom, with understanding, with knowledge and with all kinds of skills—to make artistic designs” (vv. 3-4). In addition to their specialized skills, God empowered them with His Spirit to guide their work. Their willingness to use their unique talents in service to God allowed the Israelites to appropriately worship Him.

Whether or not we consider ourselves artistic, each of us has unique, God-given gifts that we can use to serve others (Romans 12:6). Empowered by the Spirit, we can serve and worship God through our work using the wisdom, understanding, and skills He’s given us.
