Yes, God does give some of us talent. There are times that you can develope on your own.I think. But, you'd have to have something to start with. There's so many people with talent , that waste it due to drugs and alcohol. They are searching for something and can't find it. If you have any talent at all , work on it and turn to God to fine tune it.

Ambition and hard work count for a lot more than a pre-disposition to be good at something. Although a really short guy probably isn't going to be a great basketball player, being tall doesn't mean you'll be great, either. It takes persistance over a long period of time to achieve worthwhile accomplishments - sometimes it takes decades to become an "overnight" success.
Now, if you want to know if God gives us ambition, that would be a different question . . .

I believe its both. There are people who are natural athletes, artists, writers, musicians, healers, etc., but to make the most of their god given talents they have to study, exercise and practice them to make it truly work. Otherwise you have a wasted talent, a "could have been".

A little of both, does God make you a superior computer programmer or does He give you the intellect to be able to do well at whatever you choose? You can see it takes effort on our part also to excel at our chosen fields.

I think God gives us natural talents, but i believe it is up to us to develop those talents.

God has given us all our talents because without Him, we could not do anything. He is the creator of everything, even our talents and abilities. I believe deep in my heart that God had given me all of my talents, and he gave you yours too.

I believe that God has given each of us a gift but unfortunately we sometimes do not have the patience to recognize and strengthen it.

Yes, god gives us talents. Just as god gives people fatal congenital diseases.
