—Matthew 25:14-21, 24-30

It is tempting to live our lives motivated by caution and fear. It can be scary to put ourselves out there and use our God-given talents to further His kingdom. In the Parable of the Talents, the servant with one talent let his fear outweigh his faith. The servant hid his talent instead of trusting that investing the talent would reap an abundance. Are you passing up opportunities to serve the Lord because of fear of failure? As we prepare for Jesus’ return, we can pray for God’s help as we seek ways to be obedient to His will for our lives.
