If it's a gift given on conditions, then not necessarily. If it's a reward for certain level of goodness for example, then you can be blamed for not acquiring that. It can still be called a "gift" if the goodness doesn't deserve such a reward, but God appreciates the good enough to reward it.
Then it's not a "gift", but a reward.
