Have you read the parable of the talents lately? It’s found in Matthew 25:14-30. My pastor preached on this parable Sunday night. Verse 14 says “it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his property to them.”

Did you know that everything you have belongs to the master? It has been “entrusted” to you for a short while. Your family, your house, your car, even your ministry. It all belongs to Him.

Why don’t you pause right now and think about your ministry. Who’s running the show? Who’s calling the shots? Who do you work for? The answer to these questions is JESUS!

If you read the parable of the talents, you will discover that the master was pleased with the servants who were good stewards with this possessions. Remember today that your ministry is not your own, it is the Lord’s. He has simply asked you to manage it and grow it for Him. I don’t know about you, but that sure takes a load off my back!
