    Fear walls us in and makes us like the servant of the Master that buried the talent he had been entrusted with in the ground. Faith sees ourselves as gifted and bold in Christ.

Two of the three employees invested their wealth and received commendable returns. The third was afraid and hid his in a hole in the ground. ...read more
