DAILY HOMILIES #King Nebuchadnezzar

The Master addressed the servant, saying: “You wicked servant…” In other words, when we fail to extend God’s forgiveness to others, we are being wicked. The next time you feel like dealing with someone, think about how much God has forgiven you in the past. Think of what God could have done to you if He were not merciful. Jesus says: “Do to others as you would have them do to you.” (Luke 6:31).

Do not be so concerned about knowing the future that you forget the present. Jesus says, “Yes, the world will end, but for now, just get busy.” Make full use of the gifts and talents God has bestowed upon you. Spread the kingdom of God so that upon His return, the Master may find you doing what He commanded and that your talents would have yielded abundant fruits.
