Parable of the Newbie and the Iron Ingots

A multitude of players came to The Temple of Notch and offered diamond swords with knockback 2, punch 2, smite 5, bane of arthropods 5, and even fire aspect 2. Some offered whole blocks of diamond, gold, and even emeralds. Whoever gave the most valuable gift would be declared Notch's most beloved player. Suddenly, a newbie came up and offered two iron ingots. The other players were appalled. Did she not know that she was to offer something valuable? Notch came in all of his creator of Minecraft glory and said:

"This newbie is my most beloved player. She gave her only iron ingots and now I give her the bedrock sword with Fire Aspect 3, Bane of Arthropods 10, and Punch 5!"

What would I learn from this?

This is a Biblical parable told in a different way. It means to give your best. Newbies may not have as many things as you, but they still love Minecraft.
