Over the course of a few weeks this would have been a fraction of a cent per dollar/talent deposited. Yet, the master said "You could have at least put my money in the bank where it would earn more.". This is deep! The master would NOT have said "You could have at least done...." if in fact it still would not have been good enough.
Something to think about when either getting beat over the head or beating yourself over the head about not doing enough...... to make it into heaven.
So you are saying just do something instead of nothing!
