Jesus told a story about a man going on a trip. He gave his servants bags of gold to take care of.
Two servants worked hard and doubled their money! But one servant was scared and buried his gold in the ground.
When the master came back, he said to the hard workers, “Well done, good and faithful servants!” God gives each of us gifts, and He wants us to use them for Him.
