Ephesians 2:12-22 / Luke 12:35-38      

If we have the choice to be the master or the servant, which would we really choose?

Of course, it would be obvious we want to be master and to be served by servants.

To be a servant is to be at the beck and call of the master and always having to carry out orders.

But in the spirit realm, it is also obvious that we cannot be the master, as we are not deities, nor are we divine.

In fact, if we truly believe in God, we would rather want to be servants of God.

We want God to be our Master because we know we can't protect ourselves nor can we depend on our own resources and abilities for every difficulty and problem.

Yes we want to be servants of God and to be counted as not just His servants but also His children since we call God our Father.

But just like servant and children, we have to be obedient and faithful to God our Father and Master.

Jesus, the Son of God said that He come to serve and not be served. 

May we also do likewise and be always alert and ready to do what God wants of us.
