Okay I've totally been negligent with posting again I know no surprise. But on Memorial Day my dad and I were running a couple errands for my mom and we got to talking about Jesus' parable of the talents. I narrated it to him so we could both refresh our memories and then we discussed it. It was really cool to be able to talk so openly about God's word with my dad. Anyways I got to thinking about how Jesus' parable applies to our lives and came up with the partial answer that the talents that God have given us are things we need to use for His will. And then I remembered that when the Master came back after entrusting the various amounts of money to all three of his servants, the servants that used their money and doubled it were richly rewarded and put in charge of much. and then the third servant that buried his master's money was reprimanded because he didn't use his talents to multiply what the Master had. I was thinking about this and wondered. Am I using what God has given me--my time, my resources, my talents--for God's will? What about you guys?
