My Father's Business |
Luke 2:48-49
When his parents saw him, they were astonished. His mother
said to him, "Son, why have you treated us like
this? Your father and I have been anxiously searching for you." And he
said unto them, how is it that ye sought me? Wist ye not that I must be about my Father's
business?
While the world rails and heaps their scorn upon the
Christian witness, the words of Christ echo strong, we must be about our
Father’s business.
Let no word or deed deter us from fulfilling our part of His
business.
Answer strongly the question; “What is your business” with
these words; “My Father’s business is my business.”
Let your prayer be; “Father let me live long enough to
complete the task that is mine with nothing lacking;” so I will be able to say
“it is finished”
Matthew 25:40 "The King will answer and
say to them, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these
brothers of Mine, even the least of
them, you did it to Me.
Proverbs 14:31 Whoever oppresses the poor shows contempt for
their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors God.
Proverbs 19:17Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the LORD,
and he will reward them for what they have done.
Matthew 10:42And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to
one of these little ones who is my disciple, truly I tell you, that person will
certainly not lose their reward."
The opportunity to do God’s business is at hand each and
every day. Let us
not grow weary in our well doing!

ReplyDeleteI like the line about not letting word nor deed deter us from doing our part in His business. I do not want to fail Him if he so graciously gives me a part in reaching someone for Him. It's a sobering thought.
