1 Peter 4:10

God has given each one of you different ways to do good for each other. He has given you the power to do them, so you have to do them properly.

Plain English Version

In The King James Version

As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

In Context

9If there are other Christians that need food or a place to stay, then share your home with them and don’t complain to anyone about it.

11If you can tell stories to people, then tell them God’s story, and tell it clearly. If you can help other people, then let God make you strong so you can help them properly. Do everything properly so that when people see it, they might say that God is really great. If they know that you follow Jesus, they might thank God for sending Jesus to us. Jesus has really great power now, and he will have that power for ever. That’s true.
