Masterfully done. Doing nothing isn’t an option. To stand still is to go backwards.

I think we are too inclined to give “talent” the modern definition. Talents were, and indeed are, thing of value, gifts given by God for us to use. And those gifts aren’t always something we Do, like the arts, or charities. Having good health is a talent, so is poor health, and how do we used those gifts to draw nearer to God? Every single thing in our life is a talent, a valuable gift, given us by our Master.

Julie, I think the real story here is God’s will be done. God never gives us a quick start guide on life. Instead we all fumble and fail at times. I am 72vyears old it took me 65 years but I think I finally understand at least a small part of the plan. The real message here is that God never fails, God never loses, it is up to us to keep seeking until we increase the “talent” God has given us.
God bless you and your talent

thanks so much for today’s reflection. but the question that has been bothering me each time I read this gospel text is, how can one truly identify his/ her own talent. is it possible that we can figure out this talents in us by ourselves?

In my experience, every time I use my talent and share it for free by teaching them how to do it, I found out that my talent was developed and increased.

Thanks Julie for the reflection, we should be grateful to God and put to use the talents God has given us for our benefit and that of others. God Bless.
