God wants us to know that what we have has been given to us —is for us to give to someone else's need.
James 2: 16 And one of you says to him, Good-bye! Keep [yourself] warm and well fed, without giving him the necessities for the body, what good does that do? 17 So also faith, if it does not have works (deeds and actions of obedience to back it up), by itself is destitute of power (inoperative, dead).18 But someone will say [to you then], You [say you] have faith, and I have [good] works. Now you show me your [alleged] faith apart from any [good] works [if you can], and I by [good] works [of obedience] will show you my faith. AMPC
Being so conformed to this world we don't think about our gift as needful for someone else. We don't act like our gift makes room for us as we give it away—but that is exactly how the Kingdom of God operates (Proverbs 18:16) . Give and it will be given to you (Luke 6:38). Jesus said seek God's way of doing and what you need will be added to you (Matthew 6:33).
Ephesians tells us to work with our hands to give to those in need of our gift.<3
