God’s Possessions
The master “entrusted his possessions” to his servants.
Scholars
observe that it is almost impossible to know precisely how much a talent would
be in modern monetary value. But Jesus’
emphasis does not seem to be about monetary value anyway.
It is the trust that matters. It is the trust the master puts in his servants. Even the third servant is entrusted with the master’s possessions.
And the greatest possession is not material things or money.
Think of the gift of life that God has entrusted to us.
Think of the gift of God’s only Son, Jesus Christ, that God has entrusted to us. With Jesus, we are entrusted with God’s love, mercy, peace, harmony, and so much more.
Am I making interest in multiplying and sharing the possessions that God has entrusted to me? Am I making God, who has been so generous to me, known and loved?
