When I took a spiritual gifts inventory recently it said discernment and teaching were my top two.

I have lots of gifts from God...artistic ones, the gift of singing, compassion, and so much more.

How would a 'gift' be defined? Is it a talent, or is it something else?

When I was a pastor, God gave me the spiritual gifts of preaching and teaching God's Word; but in retirement he switched gears to give me his gift of creativity through writing, because in my time of rebelling against his call to the ministry, he led me into teaching English.

I've heard testimonies from people that are so similar to yours, that I kinda want to go, Wow.

That is a good question. Spiritual Gifts, or material gifts?

Because I've had both.

I say, "Wow!" too, @Edward429451, at God's amazing providence in guiding me, like Jonah, reluctantly!!

I didnt want to move to Ohio, but He told me to, and confirmed it. Still I resisted...and suddenly, everyone was talking and teaching about Jonah! I did get scared, and here I am in Ohio!!

I'll buy what you said here, but our emotions are not a gift. They are a part of what makes up our soul, which everyone has already when born.

Just like pain. Pain is not a gift but it serves a useful function. It tells you that something is wrong!

Just a technicality there.
