My friend said "You should write about the Winter Olympics." My reply: "But I'm not a sports writer."
"I don't mean you should write about sports. Write about the discipline and sacrifices made by the athletes and their families. That's stewardship of talent in a big way!"
"I agree," I said. "In order to develop our talents and reach the potential that God gave each of us, we have to practice and make sacrifices. We see this forcefully with athletes, but it's also true for all of us -- no matter what skills or abilities God has given us."
