“The form of this world is passing away”
1 Corinthians 7:31
Brethren, if you are ever so deeply taken up with any enjoyment that it takes away your love for prayer or for your Bible, or that it would frighten you to hear the cry, “The bridegroom comes” and you’d reply, “Has He come already?” then you are abusing this world.

It is not great talents God blesses so much as great likeness to Jesus.
