Tues Devo: Return on investment

Matthew 25: 24-28 “And the one also who had received the one talent came up and said, ‘Master, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you did not sow and gathering where you scattered no seek. And I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what is yours.’ But his master answered and said to him, ‘You wicked, lazy slave, you knew that I reap where I did not sow and gather where I scattered no seed. Then you ought to have put my money in the bank, and on my arrival I would have received my money back with interest. Therefore take away the talent from him, and give it to the one who  has the ten talents.’” (NASB)

Hello,

All of us have been given skills and abilities, in addition to varying amounts of material resources. Similar to the challenge from last week about being engaged – I think a challenge for all of us about investing ourselves is warranted. Are we multiplying our abilities through generosity? Are we building into others, so they can do the same?
When Christ returns, and we stand before God – what account will we give for His investments to us of skills/abilities/resources?

I hope this challenges all of us!

Have a blessed day,
