Evening: Psalm 34; Luke 12:41-48
“Heads up, the boss is coming!” “Look lively … visitors from head office.” Familiar lines, these, but I find being-on-my-best-behaviour just when I ‘have’ to dreary and demeaning. Is anyone completely happy with his work? No, some things must be done, like it or not, whether the boss is coming or not. If I do them it’s because I trust that life is essentially good; that’s why I’m trustworthy. Jesus suggests that when I realize how much I have received, I live gratefully, without counting what everything costs me. And I’m ready anytime for whoever shows up.
