God might give you some material blessings. He may give you a car or a house. How can you use these
material blessings to honor God? We can invite others to our house for a Bible study. We can pick them
up with our car. You see, every blessing that God gives us can be used selfishly or can give God glory.

3. Wasting our Talents. God has given you unique abilities. Are you using these abilities to serve the
Lord or serve yourself? Perhaps you have a beautiful voice. You can sing the songs of this world and
your rewards will burn. But you can sing, uplifting our Savior, and be a blessing to multitudes. Perhaps
you have the gift of administration. You can then use this gift to help organize events that will bring
people to Christ. We will be judged on what we do with the talents God has given us.

The choice is yours. You can live for yourself or you can live for Christ.

II Chronicles 16:9 For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give strong
support to those whose heart is blamelesstoward him.

Will you be this man or woman?
