A Wise Servant

Sometimes it's difficult to get wisdom out of something you've read so many times already, but when I think about that, I'm so thankful that I've had the opportunity and freedom to read the Bible multiple times and study different areas of it repeatedly. There are so many people that haven't had that opportunity and would be reading these daily readings for the first time.

In Matthew 24, Jesus is explaining the importance of being prepared for His return. He pretty much said be the son who cares for the house and all it's belongings when his parents are gone, so that when they return, everything is in order and better than what they left it. Don't be the son who finds out his parents are leaving and throws a rager, then has his parents return before he can hide his foolishness. 

Jesus will be returning, but only God knows the day and time. Be the child who is multiplying the gifts the Father has given when Jesus returns. Don't be the one running into hiding for foolish decisions.
