Scripture
Luke 12:47 The servant who knows what his master wants and ignores it, or insolently does whatever he pleases, will be thoroughly thrashed.
Observation
Once again the scriptures present themselves in a clear, unmistakable way & in a timely manner.
The following verse provides some restbite for those remaining ignorant (they only get a slap on the hand), this verse speaks to those (me included) who to at least some extent know what his master wants.
Application
If I want to avoid a thrashing, feels like I only have two choices...
1) descend into ignorance (if that's even possible) to hide away from challenge & punishment
2) get in line with the master's will & follow through with what I know to be good and faithful
Prayer
Lord - thank you for a timely reminder to stay mindful of you, even in the little things. May I remain close to you & do your bidding.
Thank you for your continuing mercy & grace - Jonathan
