Thought For Today

(Jesus continued)  “But he who did not know, and did what deserved a beating, shall receive a light beating.  Every one to whom much is given, of him will much be required; and of him to whom men commit much they will demand the more.”  Luke 12:48

Lord this verse puts us all on the carpet.  Who of us does all that is required.  I know of very few.  It is so easy to let the cares of this world crowd out the joys of serving You.

And then Lord here you talk about the person that didn’t do the right thing because they didn’t realize what the right thing was.  They still got a beating.  A light beating but none the less they received a beating.   Thus this shows us that ignorance is no excuse.  The person was still help accountable.

Thank You once again Lord for Your unconditional love.

Thank You that even when we are like the unfaithful servant You call us back to Yourself.

Thank You that when we go through hard times because of our ignorance or self will You use those things in our lives to bring us closer to You when we have a repentant heart.

Thank You for Your patience and understanding Lord.

Oh how I need it each day of my life.

Thank You Lord.
