One of the biggest needs in
the church today is willing committed workers to be about the work God has
given His church to do. We need to be about the Father’s business, and quit
making excuses.
Look at the story Jesus started
to tell in Luke 19:11-13, While the people were
listening to these things, Jesus told them a story. He was near Jerusalem. The people thought that
God's kingdom was going to appear right away. Jesus said, "A man from an important
family went to a country far away. He went there to be made king and then
return home. So
he sent for ten of his servants. He gave them each about three months' pay.
'Put this money to work until I come back,' he said.
This
story tells us that even though Jesus was leaving His people had work to do. In
fact it promises us that we all have been given talents, gifts, and resources
to use in doing His work until His return. Everyone is to be active in Christ’s
service.
How
are you using what He has given you?
Be wise
today and always – get busy He’s coming back soon!
