BEING TRUSTED WITH MUCH

” FROM ANYONE WHO HAS BEEN GIVEN MUCH, MUCH WILL BE DEMANDED; AND FROM THE ONE WHO HAS BEEN ENTRUSTED WITH MUCH, MUCH MORE WILL BE DEMANDED. ” LUKE 12:28

As we continue to serve our Lord here on earth, he continues to gain his trust in us. Our Lord has a plan, and we are a part of that plan. When he gives us instructions we are to listen and be doers of his word. We are to be in tune with him and trust in what he is saying to us. As we continue to surround ourselves with the things of our God in heaven, we continue to build up our faith and trust in him. We get to know him on a deeper level and begin to do the work he has set aside for us. The more we receive from our Lord the more he will demand of us. The more responsibilities we receive the more he will give us. The more we do for him the larger our rewards in heaven. We are not driven by works in order to get us to heaven, but we are driven by our Lord to perform good works once we are saved. If we separate ourselves from the Lord, even for just a minute, the world will creep in and begin to throw doubts our way. As we grow deeper in our relationship with Jesus our wants and needs will begin to form into the wants and needs of our Lord, making us good stewards of what responsibilities he has given us. We must remember that if we don’t listen and do as we are asked, he will find someone who is ready and willing. Let us all stay strong in our Lord with prayer, meditation in his word and working hard to fulfill his plan for our lives. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
