One verse that often inspires me and keeps me going is what the master tells his servants upon his return. “Well done, good and faithful servant, now enter into the joy of your master” Traditionally, the parable of the talents has been seen as an exhortation to Jesus’ disciples to use their God-given gifts in the service of God, and to take risks for the sake of the Kingdom. These gifts have been seen to include personal abilities and charisms. The simple truth being, that each one is
bestowed with talents, and charisms and the way we respond to these gifts in the light of His glory, is how we enter the ‘joy of the master’. The positive rewards are based upon their faithfulness in properly using what Christ had entrusted them. This probably speaks of positive reward for believers who are faithful in serving Christ.

JesusYouth International Newsletter Magazine Description:

Jesus Youth is an international Catholic youth movement with a charismatic spirituality. It had its beginnings in Kerala (India), but is now active in nearly 25 different countries around the world.

Jesus Youth is an initiative of young people themselves, who, filled with the Holy Spirit try to reach out to other young people. The strength of the movement is its special focus on a life centered on the Lord Jesus Christ: beginning with an experience of God nourished by prayer, the Word of God, the sacraments and fellowship, and sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ with others.

Though not an actual community, Jesus Youth is a network of small but vibrant groups of young people. In their own life situations, they strive to give time to the Lord, responding to the challenges of today’s world in the power of the Holy Spirit.
