Thought For Today

(Jesus continued) “Will any one of you, who has a servant plowing or keeping sheep, say to him when he has come in from the field, ‘Come at once and sit down at table’?  Will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare supper for me, and gird yourself and serve me, till I eat and during; and afterward you shall eat and drink’?  Does he thank the servant because he did what was commanded?  So you also, when you have done all that is commanded you, say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done what was our duty.’”  Luke 17:7 – 10

Lord these are interesting verses because they tell me that we today are no different than the people back then.  We work and are paid and yet that isn’t enough for many who are constantly complaining that they are not ‘recognized’ for what they do.  You were showing these people listening that a servant is a servant.  That servant was there to serve.

Thank You Lord that You love us unconditionally.

Thank You for Your love even when we complain about our lot in life.

Lord when we look around there is so much to thank You for and yet we don’t see it and complain.

Thank You for You patience with us calling us on to become more like You.

Thank You for Your reminder today that we are here to serve You.

Thank You Lord.
