God’s gifts are meant to build His Kingdom, not just your portfolio. The Fathers warn that misusing what you’ve been given—whether time, skill, or influence—distorts the gift and harms the giver. Use what He’s placed in your hands with care and purpose.
Suggestions for the Day
- Identify one talent you’ve been neglecting—put it to work today.
- Use a work skill to serve someone without personal gain.
- Audit your week: how much of your time serves God’s purposes?
