In Matthew 25 the bags of silver are the master’s wealth, but in the context of our lives, the bags of silver are our time, treasure, and talent which is the wealth God has given us. God has placed a calling over each of our lives that, at the core, is to love God and love others. In every role and season in your life this calling may look different. As a parent you might rely on God and love him differently than when you are single. You love your children by discipling them and you also might love your coworkers by serving them in the same way Jesus served. As seasons change, the way we live out our calling also changes, but at the core, we are still called to use our time, treasure, and talent to love God and love others. If you “bury” your talent, God won’t bless you with more. In the same way, if you use your talents to love him and love others, you are like the servants who worked and invested with what God gave them. Reflect: What does loving God and loving others look like in this season? Are you using your time, treasure, and talent to live out your calling?
