“His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’
Matthew 25:21

What if?
*********
What if my talents resemble
a child’s sandcastle on the shore
while others are built of stone
on mountaintops grandeur?
~
What if the crops I’ve planted
only yield some lowly grain
while others have mined diamonds
and other costly things?
~
What if the life I live
only leaves an etch in stone
while others have hewn marble monuments
when they’re warmly welcomed home?
~
What if I joyfully accept
the humble lot God’s given me
investing it with all I’m worth
for interest eternally?

The comparison game really isn’t appropriate for Christians to engage in. Our mandate is to trust and obey God; we are also called to make disciples. A spinster I know works faithfully at her day job quietly and reliably. She also serves faithfully in children’s ministries year after year in her church. I would not describe her as a glamorous woman; however, I believe she is potentially the most beautiful woman, from her fellowship, in the eyes of God. I admire her!

May we invest the talent we’ve been given.
