Matthew 25:29
"For everyone who has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him."
馬 太 福 音 25:29
"因 為 凡 有 的 、 還 要 加 給 他 、 叫 他 有 餘 ． 沒 有 的 、 連 他 所 有 的 、 也 要 奪 過 來 。"
I was listening to an speech spoken around 3 years ago. It was talking about how to be a humble servant in Christ. One got 5 talents of money, one got 2 talents and one got 1 talent. The one who got 5 talents and the one who got 2 talents got 5 more talents and 2 more talents respectively. However, the one who got 1 talent hid it in the ground and did nothing with it. The talent got taken away from him and he was thrown outside into the darkness.
Not all of us are given 5 talents, possibly a lot less. God's request is to earn the same amount from what we had. Time to consider: how much are we given? and are we confident that we can earn as much as we get in the first place?
