Jesus continues with His parables telling us how to live as we wait for His return. He tells us of three servants who have received money from their master while he is on a journey. The master entrusts different amounts to each servant based on each one's ability. The first two servants do as they should. They invest and trade with their master's money, but the third servant buries the money for safekeeping. When the master returns, the third servant is punished for his failure to use his master's money properly.
The same is true today. God has entrusted us with many things. He has given us abilities, money, our church, brothers and sisters in the faith, and much more. He expects us to use these things for His glory. We may not bury these things or even worse, consume them on ourselves. God expects us to use His blessings to reach out to others who don't know Him. He wants us to share with those who have less than we do. Ultimately, we should do our best to get to heaven and bring as many people there with us. Let's live for the glory of God!
