We are God's investment, and every investment aims to produce more than was initially invested. God has invested gifts and talents into your life, mainly so that you can be a solution to someone else's problem. By not bringing a return on God's investment, you are violating the purpose of existence and hindering the progress of others simply because you carry the solution to their problem.
Yes! Your gifts and talents have enabled you to provide for the world's needs. Just imagine the possibility that people may leave this earth without a relationship with God or fulfilling their potential because you refuse to get your act together so that God could use you to provide solutions to their issues and they would become who they were called to be. Have you realized that you're part of a bigger picture, and it's not all about you?
So just remember the next time you decide to throw a pity party, drown yourself in depression or murmur, and complain when it's time to help someone. At that time, you are causing a break in the network of God's purpose for you and others. The reality is that you are, in fact, hindering someone's progress and or solution. As a reminder, folks, God isn't so much concerned about the sin in your life as opposed to your life's purpose; he has made provision for your sin according to 1 John 1:9.
In the scripture reference I provided below, you'll discover that the man with the one talent did not lie, commit adultery, fornicate, or covet. Instead, he did something worse: he did not bring a return on his master's investment. Your purpose, which includes your gifts and talents, is God's investment in you, and He expects a return on His investment! (Matthew 25:14-29).
