The Parable of the Talents

Sat Jun 27, 2009, 12:56 AM
Im not a fanatic person . I admire but not to the point of worshipping people.

The entire day yesterday from early morning until midnigth news and even today was all covered by the death of a global music icon . Not really shock of it because a few months ago I saw an E news on the internet how M.J's appearance deteriorated. Alrigth , Im not affected by it . Everyone dies . My reaction came late when I talked with a loved one who lives just 2 hours and a half drive away from where MJ had his childhood.

The conversation went this way .

03:43] ME: life is strange ... no matter how famous you are and rich you are you still get sick and die
[03:43] ME: have you heard of the latest in hollywood today ?
[03:44] ME: about 2pm in new york
[04:07] Me: dear
[04:08] Him : Yes dear
[04:08] Him : yes michael jackson died
[04:08] ME: hes my bros favorite
[04:08] HIM : oh
[04:08] ME: our youngest is a dance choreographer dear
[04:08] HIM : well honestly it doesnt make me sad
[04:09] ME: well it doesnt make me sad but my brother is
[04:09] ME: he adores the guy
[04:09] HIM : he was a troubled person which was sad

I was silent for a bit.

Although the world knew how confused , troubled and lonely MJ was . He never wasted the gift God had given him . He made the effort to perfect the talent , made it his life and share it to the world . He was phenomenal , an exceptional talent made only by a remarkable person that was Michael Joseph Jackson .

Like what I said Im not a fan but I sympathize with the rest of the world who just lost a wonderful talent like him .

I am human therefore I am capable of sinning but let me just write this ...

"Let it be that when our time comes our achievements and our contributions in this lifetime outweighs our errors as human".

Matthew 25:14-30 (NIV)

The Parable of the Talents

Again, it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his property to them. To one he gave five talents of money, to another two talents, and to another one talent, each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey. The man who had received the five talents went at once and put his money to work and gained five more. So also, the one with the two talents gained two more. But the man who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money.

After a long time, the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. The man who had received the five talents brought the other five. “Master,” he said, “you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more.”

His master replied, “Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!”

The man with the two talents also came. “Master,” he said, “you entrusted me with two talents; see, I have gained two more.”

His master replied, “Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!”

Then the man who had received the one talent came. “Master,” he said, “I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.”

His master replied, “You wicked, lazy servant! So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed? Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers, so that when I returned I would have received it back with interest.

“Take the talent from him and give it to the one who has the ten talents. For everyone who has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him. And throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
