The master told the two servants to go and invest their talents in different businesses. The first servant went and invested all of his five talents in one business, and the second servant went and invested all of his two talents in another business.
The first servant made more money than the second servant, even though the second servant had twice the amount of money. The first servant’s talent was in business, and the second servant’s talent was in money. The first servant’s talent was better used than the second servant’s talent.

We should always be willing to give our time, money, and resources to help others.
The laborers

The man then went to the Lord and asked for forgiveness, and was given a new job. The Lord said to him, “When you were hired, did you say to yourself, ‘I will work for such and such a wage?’ Or did the Lord say to you, ‘When you work in this vineyard, I will give you a wage?’ ” The Lord is always faithful to His promises, and He will always provide what is needed in order to help us overcome our struggles.
The Meaning of the Parable
In today’s gospel lesson, we learn about a parable that Jesus told about a man who had a talent for gathering money. The man used his talent to become very wealthy, but eventually he lost everything because he didn’t understand what it meant to have faith in God. We can learn a lot from this story about how to live our lives. We need to have faith in God, and we need to use our talents to help others.
God’s generosity
In today’s gospel lesson, we read about a man who went out to sea and was lost. When he was lost, he came upon a small boat and was able to get into it. The captain of the boat asked him where he was from and the man said he was from Galilee. The captain said, “I’m from Galilee too. Let’s go find your home.” The man was so happy to be found and to be going home. God is also very generous. He has given us his Son, Jesus, to save us from our sins. When we accept Jesus as our Savior, God will forgive us and give us eternal life.
God’s grace
In today’s gospel lesson, we learn about God’s grace. Jesus tells a story of a man who went out to hire workers for his vineyard.

Finally, he went out a third time and found the perfect workers. Why? Because God’s grace was with him. God’s grace is always with us, no matter what. We can always count on God’s grace to help us through our struggles.
God’s justice

Jesus explains that even though the man did not believe in God’s justice, God still punished him. This story teaches us that we must believe in God’s justice if we want to be saved.
Application of the Parable
In today’s gospel lesson, we read about a man who went out to hire laborers for his vineyard. He found some workers who agreed to work for him for a certain amount of time, but when the man came back the next day, he found that all of the workers had quit. The man was so angry that he went into the vineyard and threw all of the fruit out of the trees. This story is called the Parable of the Laborers in the Vineyard.
The lesson we learned from this story is that it is important to be fair and honest with our workers. If we are not, they may be willing to work for us for a short period of time, but they will eventually leave. It is important to be consistent with our expectations and to be fair to our workers.
Generosity
Generosity is one of the most important virtues we can have. In Matthew 20:1-16, Jesus teaches us about the importance of being generous. He tells a story of a man who gave away all of his possessions to charity. In the end, the man had more than he had started with. Jesus says that this man was a true disciple of Jesus. He showed that he cared about others and was willing to give of himself. We can learn a lot from this story and be more generous in our own lives.
Grace
In today’s gospel lesson, we read about a man who was forgiven by his lord. This man, named Matthew, was a tax collector. Tax collectors were hated by many people because they were seen as taking advantage of the poor. But, even though Matthew was hated, his lord loved him.
The lesson teaches us that even though we may be hated by others, we can still be forgiven. We can also be forgiven for our sins, even if we have done them many times. This is because God loves us even though we are sinners.
Justice
In today’s gospel lesson, we read about a man who was unjustly accused and then executed. Jesus speaks about how we should treat others, even if they are our enemies. We should always do what is right, even if it means standing up for someone who is being treated unfairly.
In the conclusion of this Sunday School lesson, we looked at what Jesus said about the final judgment. We also looked at what this means for us as Christians. Jesus said that we will be judged by what we have done, not by who we are. This means that we can be forgiven, even if we have done bad things in the past. We can also be forgiven if we repent and change our behavior. This is why it is so important to do what Jesus says, and to repent if we have done wrong.

Call to action
