Let's get on with it

I read the parable of the talents and a interesting twist came to mind when I heard the one talent person tell the owner that he gained profit and wealth from the labor of someone else. It sounded like he was distracted by the unfair advantage the owner had taken to get where he was in life. This may not be a correct reading of this scene but it does speak for me to our being so disgusted with politics, corporate and individual greed that we just say what's the use trying, just crawl into the hole of cynicism and bury what ability and power we have to do something good. Jesus lays on us our responsibility to be faithful and not be consumed with what is wrong in life, in the institutions of our world. Trust the Owner to have the final word. As for this one person, me, I will faithfully do what I can with what I have. So today lets get with it.
