Matthew 25:14-15 King James Version (KJV) 14 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. 15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.
Matthew 25:14-15 Common English Bible (CEB) Parable of the valuable coins
14 “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who was leaving on a trip. He called his servants and handed his possessions over to them. 15 To one he gave five valuable coins, and to another he gave two, and to another he gave one. He gave to each servant according to that servant’s ability. Then he left on his journey.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
14 This man is Jesus; He traveled back to heaven leaving us to tend to His church by His Spirit. We are left in charge of He had started and by the Spirit we can take care of things.
15 God give according to what we can handle thru Him leading us, some He gives more right away and some of us gain after making the most of what He has given us. God does not leave us even thought Christ went on His journey but we are to do the work and not expect Him to do it for us but we are to let Him do it thru us.
