Topic: The Parable of the Talents (Brother Wei Ping)

Scriptural Ref: Matt 25:14-30, Psalm 139:13-14, Jeremiah 28:11
-I am not a mistake, I have been entrusted with a deposit.
-What am I entrusted with? (Read Romans 12:1-2)

Romans 12
Living Sacrifices
1Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God–this is your spiritual act of worship. 2Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is–his good, pleasing and perfect will.

- Offer your body as a living sacrifice
- Hang close to God
- Question: Am I using my talents just like how God wants me to?

Point to remember: Everyone is unique and all of us have our own talents that God has given us.
