So I'm sitting here. By myself. Staring at the computer screen. And I'd like to write about something interesting and/or exciting. And I want the way I write to be beautiful and I want people to say "Wow, she's such a good writer!" when they read it. Assuming there are more than two and a half people that read my blog. But I want to write for the wrong reason. I want to write because I can, not because God can use my mind and thoughts to convey something He wants conveyed. I find I have that problem when I write. Most of the time. I've been told I'm a good writer enough times that I should have confidence in myself. I really don't need to remind people, as if God needed my help to find a way to say I'm special.
I don't believe in talent, really. I do enjoy watching people perform those activities they are exceptional at, but I don't believe that it's just them. Whether one believes in God or not, He exists. And He gives you the determination to pursue something you want to be good at, if that's where you're meant to be. But this is a sticky area of talk and debate, because there are a lot of holes in my idea. Don't quote me, I don't read my my Bible enough to base the above idea on anything specific and concrete. It's just my opinion. Something that flitted through my mind and will disappear until a time when God will remember it and use it.

No, I think I agree with what you mean.
I, too, tend to focus on myself and what kind of kudos I can get when I do something I enjoy and I think I'm relatively good at. But REALLY that doesn't make a whole lot of sense when I actually think it through because if I'm good at those things, it's not because I put the abilities there. Maybe I honed them, but the bottom line is that God knit me together and made me who I am and gave me the tendency to be good at the the things I'm good at.
I think you're onto something.
