Who’s the faithful and wise manager, whom the master puts in charge of his servants to give them their allowance at the proper time? It will be the servant, who the master finds doing so when he returns. He will put him in charge of all his possessions (Luke 12:41-48).

When I was reading this, the Spirit of God revealed some truths.

As servants of God, calling is very important and so our life gets responsible, debatable and accountable and comes into closer scrutiny by everyone. This is because the root of witness and testimony lies with us. This is paramount important, which is quite clearly explained in the Bible as the duties of ministers.
