I’ve learned one important thing about God’s gifts – what we do with them is our gift to Him.

Meaning of the quote

The quote means that the way we use the things God has given us is our way of showing our gratitude to Him. It's not just about receiving God's gifts, but how we choose to use them that matters. If we use the gifts He has given us in a good and helpful way, that is our way of giving back to God and showing Him that we appreciate what He has done for us.
