What does it mean to be a good and faithful servant? Dave catches a key detail in the Parable of the Talents: God doesn’t give us all the same amount of talents. God will never give us more than we can handle, while at the same time, God sees something more in us than anyone else ever can, including ourselves! Our goal is to use our talents to glorify the Lord so that we can hear at the end of our lives, “Well done, my good and faithful servant.”
