If we fail to use any mental or motor skill over a period of time, then it will become harder and harder to use that skill. Some recent research suggests that the more we use our brains, the less chance we have of getting Alzheimer s Disease at midlife or later years. God gives people different gifts. The person who is punished is the person who will not try. God provides each of us opportunity on the basis of our ability.
Ability equals expectation.
God expects us to put our blessings to work for His benefit. The kingdom is His. We are His. Our blessings are His gifts to us. Our abilities and blessings are to be used to benefit His purposes in the kingdom.
