In Matthew 25:14-30, Jesus gave a parable about a man who entrusted his wealth to his servants and went away on a journey.
When the man returned, he asked each servant what they did with the gold he gave them. Unfortunately, not all of them made good use of their portion.
One of the things I learned from this scripture, is that God will ask us how we used the resources He gave us on earth. That includes our natural talents and abilities.
Has God given you the gift of writing? Art? Technology? Speaking? Ask God to show you any untapped abilities you have, and how He wants you to use them for His glory.
1 Peter 4:10 NIV
Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.
Matthew 25:29 AMP
“For to everyone who has [and values his blessings and gifts from God, and has used them wisely], more will be given, and [he will be richly supplied so that] he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have [because he has ignored or disregarded his blessings and gifts from God], even what he does have will be taken away.
