I Have too Much…

I am watching a video about the Baby Boomer Generation, on which I am the tail, and it’s reminding me of how much I have. Wow — I have a lot.

I know that in Luke 12:48, Jesus is talking about knowledge and not possessions. But in light of his teaching in his Parable of the Talents, I think you can apply Luke 12:48b to much more than the pure quantity of theological education you possess.

When I apply it, it sobers me.

From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked. ~Jesus in Luke 12:48
