It’s an Invaluable Talent please don’t Bury it.

Matthew 25:14-30

Invaluable-extremely useful; indispensable Introduction The Master gave to these Men certain Talents and he expected to receive something back from his investment. When he returned How are why he chose to give five Talents to one man and two Talents to another and one Talent to another is not explained. could it be that he saw a certain amount of zeal or love he received from each of the men? In this parable the talents spoken of is a form of Money that can be traded for goods or invested for profit. But we see That our Lord and Savior has given every Man a gift to start our walk with God and that gift is Faith. Rom 12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. The Word of God also says Hebrews 11:6 “6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. So Faith is a requirement of living for God. Isn’t Great and awesome that God would grant to us freely the requirement it takes to Live for Him. But just like the Talents the Master lent to his servants what we do with it is up to us. Are we going to bury it like the unwise servant just let it set in the ground and profit nothing? Or we going to use it to the best or abilities? If we use it and we do not double like the others at least we will profit a little we can look at the Lord with all honestness and say we Gave it our best . [1]
