 It is easy to believe and prepare for changes in our lives when there is evidence.  However, in Mary's situation (Luke 1:26-38), she chooses to prepare for a future that does not reflect her current reality. This is the definition of faith: expecting when it seems as if there is nothing to expect.

Pastor Khalid explores the parable of the talents (Matthew 25:14-30), specifically to examine the mindset of the traveler who represents God.  Like the servants in the parable, we are all expected to provide a return on the investment God has made in us.  The question worth answering is whether or not we've been a worthwhile investment.
