In Exodus 31:6, God tells Moses that he gave skills to the craftsmen to accomplish the work of constructing the Tabernacle.
God has given and continues to give skills to men to enrich our heritage and build the things necessary for society to function. The skills are operative even when those who possess them do not acknowledge their source.
We, as believers, though can appreciate the skills and acknowledge the Skill Giver. I can worship God when I see an incredible athletic feat even though the one who performs it lives an immoral life style. In every discipline whether music, art, athletics, architecture, etc. we can find reasons to thank God for the way he has gifted humans with skills.
Perhaps one day, all who posses such skills will acknowledge the Skill Giver. While we are thanking God, perhaps we can intercede on their behalf.
