Ever thought yourself that you are not good enough in life? Sometimes we will reason it out why we can't do it. Sometimes we will use a lot of excuses to reason the things we couldn't do. What more to say if the duties is either simple or hard to do.
The same stories goes with the "Parables of the Talents" where the third servants were given the least of talents yet could not do it because of a lot excuses.
What is the talents all about?
The talents is no single coin. A talent worth $840,000 USD. So we can see that the amount is enough to run a business which the Masters asked to the three servants in the Master's Home. But our main focus today why would the third servant called wicked and lazy by his Master?
Third Servant: Wicked and Lazy..it could be us as well.
Like it or not we are no big different to the third servant. We are born gifted by God. Some of us gifted to have a good talent in musical instruments, athletic life or others. However the sad part is, we often shy off with our gifts. Why? We love reasoning something, we comparing ourself to other and also simply saying "i am not good than any other people, why would i bother it?".
We are created not to compare and giving excuse. Be in mind we are perfected by Christ both inside and out of our imperfection. Even the birds sings does not mean they are professional singer!
So the challenge is here, will you use your "talent" to glorify God's name or "buried" it?
