The Work of a Faithful Servant
The blessing in this verse is for the servant found "so doing" the specific tasks of a steward. Commentators explain this means faithfully managing the master's household and distributing provisions. For believers, especially leaders, this involves diligently caring for God's people and faithfully teaching His word, acting as stewards of His resources, not their own.
