Are You an Asset or a Liability?

There are a lot of people who thinks this way, I am not doing any criminal activity as well as I am not doing anything good for others, so I am doing well. They live a life absorbed in their own world. They are the center of their own universe.

I have been reading some books on investments lately, one thing I learned was an asset that is not generating income is a liability. A store that is not selling well becomes a liability because rent, electricity and salary has to be paid, if the expenses is greater than the income then the store becomes a liability since it drains money away from its owner. A lazy son becomes a liability to the family since he is not contributing to help the family in their needs. He takes up food and space without paying for them. God has given us this LIFE. Our “life” is God’s investment. God was very specific with his investment. Jesus told the parable of the talents. Two servants were able to increase their talents twofold. The lazy servant who got the beating buried his talent to the ground. If we are not doing anything to make this world a better place, we are a liability to this world. We are taking space and resources and not giving anything back. If we have a “consume-er” mentality, the world will eventually be exhausted. If we fail to do some “good”, then there is a depreciating of good. If the good acts are lost, then the balance of good an evil is lost. Not doing anything is NOT GOOD. If a person with cancer just cannot “NOT DO ANYTHING” or else his cancer will eat him till he is dead. Do we wonder why the world is so dark? Because we fail to do the good we should have done. We are not Assets, but liabilities. What do you call an asset that is not producing anything good? Its called “useless!”
