Every person born is important to God, He wants none to be lost. Every person is give talents and gifts to enable them to make a living and serve God. Every person born is born for a purpose and has a work to do for God. Some gifts and talents are very obvious while others are more  obscure, but none are more important than the other. I knew from an early age that I could write songs but not until middle age after I became a Christian, did I start using that talent for God. Many people with talents never get around to using them for God which is a shame. Many people never come to God even though they are called, they refuse because the world is so entising to them.

God doesn't expect people to use their talents exclusively in service to Him unless it is preaching,evangelism, etc. Talents that are used to make a living can be used for just that purpose but may be used in God service from time to time. I am very happy with the talent God gave me and I try my best to write the messages He gives me in songs and I try my best to get them developed and heard by as many people as I can. I try to get them played on radio which will reach many people, the competition for airplay is great so the quality of the music must be up to par to be considered. Even  Gospel stations will put the quality of the production above the message in the song, which is sad because the message is what is important.
