The master also states that just as much as they gave a return and they put their bags of gold to use and et cetera, that there was a pleasure that he took into their work because he was pleased that they put it to work and that they invested. And it also said... What the master said, he said, because I've trusted you with these things, I will trust you with more.

So it shows that when God trusts us with little things, they're not something that should just be pushed to the side. There should be things that are embraced and stewarded just as much as if God were to give you a crazy opportunity, because God is going to use that opportunity to test you if you're worthy to be entrusted with the bigger thing.

You may be praying for you to be a CEO of a business, but God's not going to grant that to you if you don't even learn how to be a good employee. So is God going to grant you more if he can't trust you with the little?

And so the story kind of paints this picture of God giving to his children and giving onto his servants and them having the responsibility to carry out the riches and things that he has provided onto us. And he wants to see what we're going to do with it. Are we going to have a bigger return or are we going to be like the last man who was afraid and hid what he was called to double?

So while we saw that these men who were entrusted with more got a better return because they put their work to use, we then come across this man who then hid the inheritance and the treasure and the abundance that his master has given him because of one thing, fear. He says, master, because I was afraid, I hid what you have provided upon me. And here it is just the way that you left it.

And what is the master's response? You wicked and a lazy servant. You have not brought me back interest. You have not stewarded the things that I have brought on to you. And so I want to talk about for a moment, I talked about this, oh gosh, I feel like it was one of my first episodes and it was called the addiction of hiding. And I want to talk about right now, the reaping of hiding because

Because while these men were putting their money to use, what this man had done is that he received the inheritance, but then what had happened was instead of putting it to work, he hid it. Like, he buried it. And it wasn't... Like, you would have thought he could have done anything with this money.

Like, the fact that he dug a hole in the ground and then put the money in it and then buried it, like, he could have, like, kept it by his bedside or kept it to himself or he could have invested it into somebody else or he could have spent it, but, like... He hid it. He could have just kept it, but he buried the money and hid it instead.

And what the Lord was revealing to me through this passage is that hiding partners with shame and fear is that when this man said, I was afraid and went out and hid your gold into the ground. See here, this is what belongs to you. It shows that shame happens. and fear partnered with one another because this man was in shame.

This man was in fear of embarrassment, was in fear of failure, was in fear of the missing of opportunity that instead of risking the chance to, it was almost as if this man risked the opportunity to please his master to, what's the word I'm looking for? to just hold on to his shame. Like he, he, yeah, I'm just going to leave it at that.
