Luke 12: 48 But the one who does not know and does things deserving punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked/
So many times I have been thankful for the gift of faith I have received. Here is the flip side. So much more is expected of me b/c of that! It is not enough to be as good as others who lack faith--I am held to a higher standard.
GULP! I try, I really do. But then life intervenes. I am busy; I don't feel well; Ron is going through another trying time; other people hurt my feelings. How quickly I let myself slide into sinful ways!
Prayer: Lord, strengthen me so that I can bring You all that you expect of me. I know that I have been given so many blessings, and I am thankful for the faith which gets me through the trying times. Help me rise to Your expectations for me; help me to find and fulfill Your will for my every day. Amen
