A parable is a very short story that illustrates some virtue. For example the parable of the seven wise virgins simply states that it is good to be prepared.
I would sugest that the parable of the Wise and Foolish virgins. I say this because it deals with those who were not ready when Christ comes again. The unfaithful servant deals only with the reponsibility of missionary work. Though both are important I think that being ready for when Christ comes is the most important. In actual fact the first includes the second.

The modern day parable of the ten virgins teaches us the importance of being prepared and vigilant for unexpected events. We can apply this lesson to our lives by staying alert, being ready for challenges, and making wise choices to ensure we are always prepared for whatever may come our way.
