11 Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which ye have. 12 For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not (2 Corinthians 8:11-12).
We are asked to use what we have in terms of gifts for the purposes of God. And those purposes are to glorify Him and in so doing accomplish the mission of spreading the Gospel. So in all things, according to our ability, we are to do the work that God intends us to complete. It is not that God needs us, but rather He is glorified through our actions and uses our actions in accordance with His will. We in turn are blessed when we do and use what God has given us. So, whatever you do, do it for God.
