200 years later in 1990, more than $2,000,000 had accumulated in
Jesus, as recorded in Matthew 25, reserved some of his most severe criticism for people who, through fear, would not look responsibly into the future. One of the servants in this parable would not even put the extra money he was given in the bank to earn nominal interest. Yet, Jesus commended the other two for acting in faith and doubling their money through wise investment. He rewarded them by giving them more.
I am inspired and challenged by Franklin ’s foresight and that of these two servants. It has caused me to take a serious look at what God has given me today and search for wise investment opportunities of my time, abilities, and resources. My prayer is that what I (and you) choose to entrust will grow over time under the watchful eye of Providence and bring exponential profit to others beyond even this life.
