Faithfulness is rewarded

“It came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.” You see, the important thing is that while He’s away, friends, He’s given to you an opportunity. And that opportunity is the pound, and you’re to be faithful for whatever He’s made you a steward of. Your pound may be a whole city, and another man’s pound may be just a handful of people, and another man it may be just a home. But they’re to be faithful. And when He comes, why He’s going to reward them according to their faithfulness, you see. That is the important thing—faithfulness.
