Faithful with a Little

Today, more families have to manage their homes with less money and fewer resources than before, and must make challenging decisions about how to manage their shrinking resources. In Matthew 25: 23, Jesus tells the parable of talents, where the servant multiplied the few talents that he was given, and earned a return on his master's investment. "His master said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master." In reality, all of our resources belong to God, and He has trusted us as stewards to take care of His resources. When we are faithful stewards over the little that we have, we only need to trust that God will be faithful in fulfilling each one of his promises.
