Rendering to God What Is His
"Blessed are you, servant of God, if you attribute all that is good in yourself to the Lord God; for if you hold back anything for yourself, you hide inside yourself your Lord's money (cf. Mt 25:18), and what you think you have will be taken from you (cf. Lk 8:18)." --St. Francis, Admonition 18
Even if we give God the glory for all that is good about ourselves, such as our talents, but do not use it for His glory, He will take it from us. This is the simple admonition "use it or lose it."
