Be Ready for Service

…47That servant who knows his master’s will but does not get ready or follow his instructions will be beaten with many blows. 48But the one who unknowingly does things worthy of punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and from him who has been entrusted with much, even more will be demanded. (Luke 12:47 & 48-BSB)

Understand the responsibility that comes with your strength; ponder the effects of your inhibitions; know the boundaries of your limitations; challenge your weaknesses; visualize how willful disobedience will influence your thinking, impede your judgment, and affect your decisions to set in rapid motion a series of consequences that can adversely change your circumstances or bring about a swift-ending to your purposeful and promise-filled life.
