A Worthy Live

Good Morning,

Matthew 24:45-47 (NIV)
"Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time? It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns. I tell you the truth, he will put him in charge of all his possessions."
Ephesians 4:1 (NRSV)
Lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called.

Jesus asks a question in the verses we read today. Who, indeed, is the faithful servant who has done as God has asked him or her to do? I think we have the answer, as often happens, in the second Scripture we read this day. You see, if we are to be faithful servants to the Master, we will lead our lives worthy of the calling to which God has called us.

Scripture so very often gives us the answers to questions that we may have when reading other Scripture. Sometimes it's not easy to find, but more than likely, it's there.

Jesus also tells us, "It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so (what he has been called to do) when he returns." So, it stands to reason that if we, His called, live our lives worthy of our calling, that is...that we do as we know we should in whatever area God has asked us to serve..., then "It will be good" for us.

Seems simply and straight forward, doesn't it?

I guess the only question would be: Am I (are we) living that worthy life?

Love, peace, and blessings,

David
