Luke 19:16. Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
The genuine servant, with due humility, puts himself in the background. It is not he who has "gained ten pounds;" it is his Lord’s pound that has done it. He is pleased to bring the ten pounds; yet he claims no credit for himself, but says, "Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds."
