Making profit
Another thing that pleases God is when human beings make profit or produce increase in their life endeavours. In the book of Isaiah chapter 48 verse 17, God says that it is He who teaches us to make profit. All commercial activity is geared towards making a profit. Even non-commercial ventures aim to make profit or increase or a positive contribution in some way or the other.
In our passage, each of the servants who brought a smile to their master’s face said, “I have gained more with what you gave me……I have made a profit” We are not told about their hard work or the difficulties that they encountered in order to achieve what they did but we know that they must have given their assignment some effort. And that is the point that I am making in today’s blog. What effort are you putting into your life’s assignment? Are you daily purposefully doing something to get you to where you have always wanted to be or are you simply talking or dreaming about it? It is time to stop talking and to start doing something positive to move in the right direction. At the end of our lives, we ought to be able to say to anyone who would care to listen, but more importantly to our Creator, “See, I have made a profit…” May the Lord bless you and rouse you to positive action about your life assignment TODAY.
This posting concludes the series on Things that please God, a meditaion on the Bible passage Matthew 25:14-30.
