Jesus does not give us gifts, talents, and resources merely to spend them on ourselves. He gives them to us so that we will use them to expand His kingdom and to meet the needs of others – especially fellow believers (1 Corinthians 12:4-7; Galatians 6:9-10).
Commentary from the Charles F. Stanley Life Principles Bible, 2d ed., notes for Luke 12:48.
