The one who had received five talents came forward bringing the additional five… “Well done, my good & faithful servant.” The 3rd servant…went off & buried the talent… Throw this useless servant into the darkness outside! TODAY’S GOSPEL TELLS US . . . Matthew 25: 14-30
Every servant in this gospel parable is given riches by the master with the expectation that each servant will increase what has been given. Even one talent was a significant amount of riches. To bury it was to waste its potential. The servant who does so out of fear, wickedness, laziness is condemned by the master upon his return and loses even what he has. The wealth each of us has been given by our Master is a share in his very Life. Even a small amount is an incalculable richness. We will be judged by how we have chosen to allow this Life to increase, to grow within us. To choose otherwise is to bury our very selves.
Daily Mass this week. Wednesday Adoration at 6:30 p.m. Reconciliation: by appointment
