Truly, I tell you, he will put on an apron and have them sit at table and he will wait on them. Happy are those servants if he finds
them awake when he comes at midnight or daybreak!
Reflection
Our attitude towards the Lord’s second
coming depends on our response to His first
coming. For those who eagerly await our Lord’s
return are those who have eagerly accepted His first
coming. Those who did not receive Jesus as the
Messiah, will surely not look toward His return as a
welcome event. They have not readied themselves for
such an event. That is why they fear when that time
comes. This therefore leads us to question ourselves,
“Have we welcomed Christ as God’s Sin-bearer and our
Savior? Have we received His free gift of salvation?
If not, because our faith is only something we have
passively accepted, then we have time to catch up.
There is always time for those who are willing to
change and repent. The decision is ours whether
we want to be dressed and ready for His second
coming.
