Stay Awake!

Yesterday(!)'s QT has a simple yet powerful message... It's a story of servants who are awake, as it is uncertain when the master will return.

This is truly a story that wakes me up, certainly. Am I a wise servant who stays awake for the master's return? The passage that especially rings true to me is the one that says that the Master will entrust more unto him who is ready and prepared.

Am I relaxed and "drunk" spiritually, because I don't think the Master is returning anytime soon? The truth of the matter is that He WILL return one day, unexpected, and what are we doing? Are we living day-to-day staying awake for His return? Especially given that we are teachers with responsibility; am I taking this responsibility too lightly?

When we first fall in love, we can't help but think of that person. When I first fall in love with a new hobby, I can't help but think about that hobby. Why couldn't we live like that with God, where we don't make efforts to meet God, instead, we are continuously thinking of God, day-dream of God, and we have to make an effort to step out of that and focus on our everyday tasks?
