M The parable of the talents in Matthew 25 shows God gives to us with the intent that we invest and multiply his gifts. He did not judge harshly those with smaller talents for earning smaller returns. He did judge the one who hid his talent and earned nothing.
V What were the characteristics of the good stewards? They honored the boss who trusted them. They gave thought and effort to their choices. They oversaw the returns and were diligent. They were accountable. They could look forward to giving a report to their boss.
M The foolish steward was lazy and gave excuses. We have a caring, rewarding and worthy master.
