“Some of the parables that Matthew records and that Jesus delivered as part of his Olivet Discourse-such as the ten virgins and their lamps or the servants and the talents they were given-are some of the best known of Jesus' teachings. Reading them in the context of his prophecies about the end of the world, however, makes them clearly parables of preparation. To be on his right hand with his "sheep" rather than at his left hand with the "goats" at his return, we must prepare ourselves now.” WorldEndsHandsReadingJesusLeftGivenKnownRecordsTeachingTalentReturnTenPreparationServantSheepProphecyDiscourseVirginsLampsEnd Of The WorldGoatsMatthewParablesLeft Hand Author:Eric D.

“People who become great leaders are those who take time to reflect every day on the big questions: Who am I? What is my purpose? Who are my heroes in history, mythology, and religion? What are my unique talents and how do I express them? These are the qualities of silent reflection that make a great leader, like Jesus.” PeopleBigsPurposeJesusQualityLeaderTalentHeroUniqueReflectionSilentMythologyTake TimeGreat LeaderMy HeroBig QuestionsUnique Talents Author:Deepak Chopra
