God gives us beautiful gifts and talents for us to use for His glory, but so often we use them for our glory, or the glory of someone we put before God (i.e. an idol), or for our own advantage. Just like the Israelites who forgot who gave them their “jewelry made of [His] gold and silver”, we often forget to give God the glory when we are praised for the talents He gave us. We need to constantly fix our eyes on Him and give all glory and honor and power to the one and only God who is worthy of our praise.
