For I testify that according to their ability, and beyond their ability, they gave of their own accord.
2 Corinthians 8:3
We must acknowledge that God gives us many gifts, including time and talent, and we must give back a portion of them, as well, if we're to be truly faithful stewards. You have been given skills and talents that the Lord wants to use for His Kingdom. Paul makes this clear in 1 Corinthians 12:4-7.
