His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much.’ Mt 25:21

Receive His Applause

In life, we are entrusted with a lot of duties and responsibilities by God. However, He would not have given us these if we were not capable of successfully completing them. When we take the right efforts we can be proud about the results we have produced. It needs commitment, courage, and discipline to complete any task that is placed before us. That is why we need to be diligent and faithful as the servant, highlighted in the parable of Jesus. “And he who had received the five talents came forward, bringing five talents more, saying, ‘Master, you delivered to me five talents; here, I have made five talents more.’ His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’” (Mt 25:20-21) Each day gives us enough opportunity to multiply the talents that are entrusted with us; so let us ask God to bless us, that we may receive applause from Him and receive new responsibilities.

 

Abba, thank You so much for entrusting us with talents and responsibilities. Let Your Spirit guide us that we may be faithful in all that we do, in Jesus’ Most Wonderful Name, Amen.
