The current scarcity of people who are even aware of their own spiritual gifts, let alone people who are making good use of them, can't be good for us as individuals or for the human race as whole.
I think there is a connection between the dearth of people who are aware of, and also making good use of their spiritual gifts and the sorry state of our planet. One of the most germane spiritual gifts connected with the decline of the Earth and its systems is music, or rather the lack of it.
Many early religions had relays of musicians scheduled to play music around the clock every day of the week. Some of these musicians were monks, priests, or nuns. For a while the Roman Catholic was so prevalent that it was able to say that its worship services continued without ceasing around the world 24/7.
Other religions probably managed the same feat. The world was in much better shape when all of those musical spiritual gifts were making, "the little hills skip for joy".
I think that we can save the world with music if we keep it going 24/7 again. We have about 7 billion people in the world now. Surely we can manage enough of the musically gifted to keep some music playing in a dedicated building for 24 hours a day. Since people are deserting traditional religions in droves it might be too much of a challenge for one religion to muster musical shifts 24/7 as they did in the past. If we go nondenominational and share the musical shift duties, we should be able to manage it easily.
Musical superstars are constantly latching onto some telegenic charity and doing fundraisers for it. What could be more universally appealing than saving the whole world?
