On the other hand, if we don’t practice our skills, it just deteriots. If we use our skills, then it gets even better each time. E.g. Say I’m good at organizing events. If I keep organizing activities for God, then my organization skill gets better cause I use it and God will bless my skill too. If I don’t organize events, then my organization skill deteriorates and God will take this blessing away from me too.
