“America’s Got Talent”, “Britain’s Got Talent” , even “Australia’s Got Talent” well, yes, “Pilipinas Got Talent” and for sure by now, we know “Korea’s Got Talent”. The best bit about these talent shows is not how much talent there really is out there, but the discovery of people who, may not have had the chance before, but now are, wanting to use their talent.
I don’t normally blog on Sundays but today the Gospel was about the “Parable of the Talents”. (Matthew 25:14-30 in the Holy Bible). It’s one of my favorite stories. If you feel lacking in motivation, feeling “comfortable” , or just plain lazy, this is a good reminder to get going — it says “to everyone who has will be given more, and he will have more than enough; but from the man who has not, not even what he has will be taken away”.
I found an online story here – (see that! Thanks to the talents and dedication of people we don’t even know, it’s readily available!)
It just reminds us that God wants us to go out in the world, apply ourselves, be productive, and improve our lives.
Happy Sunday…. I leave you this music from Mozart, Barbara Bonney and the talented people in the orchestra and choir.
