Someone once said "hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard". Many people expect talent alone to carry the day when in reality success is never given; it must be earned. In the Bible God gives his followers "if, then" propositions. If Moses faced Ramses, then he would free the Hebrews. David had to fight Goliath. Daniel had to refuse to kneel. Peter had to step out of the boat. Action precedes results.
Reward comes from effort. Champion body builders pump iron for hours in the gym everyday for their physique. The winner of a marathon runs hundreds of miles prior to a race. A Super Bowl MVP has been playing football since he was a child attending every practice.
Talent alone is insufficient and the world is full of lazy geniuses. Many are called but few get up.
