Well Done! - Paul M. Williams

Matthew 25:14-30 Which one of us doesn't like to hear the words "well done"?  Whether from a boss at work, or a family member in the home; those two simple words spoken in sincerity mean so much!  Who doesn't like to be encouraged?  Children especially rejoice to hear the words "well done" — as a former teacher, I can vouch for that first-hand and as a daddy, I can say the same. When you tell a little one "well done", and you say it with heartfelt meaning, watch their tiny faces respond as they beam from ear to ear like a Cheshire cat!  There's something about the human race, it matters not how old we are, there's a God-given trait within our DNA, a desire deep inside to please others in a job well done.  This sermon is an appeal to Christian service—a call to faithfulness in the talents entrusted to us by the Lord.
