"blessed are those servants"

Luke12:35-38
Jesus said to his disciples: “Gird your loins and light your lamps
and be like servants who await their master's return from a wedding, ready to open immediately when he comes and knocks.
Blessed are those servants whom the master finds vigilant on his arrival. Amen, I say to you, he will gird himself, have them recline at table, and proceed to wait on them.
And should he come in the second or third watch and find them prepared in this way, blessed are those servants." 


Reflections:

 "blessed are those servants"

Many of us would really like to be served by others. We want and easy life and we always want to be at the top. Let me journey with you today as we reflect on the phrase "blessed are those servants." May would say they wanted to serve God but it is really difficult to do such. Our human limitations are sometimes the hindrance to commit our selves in the service.

But, friend let me tell you that serving God is to serve first the "least of our brethren". If we cannot sere their needs how more we can serve God. May we always be an instrument to serve others, to others, and for others.

Have an open heart and ask for the grace of God today with humility to show you and let you feel his divine service in your existence. Be with others and serve others needs. The Church needs you now. Serve the Church, help the Church of the poor.

If I have not yet served my family how can i serve my other neighbor, so my friend today's invitation is to know more of our self and reflect if "have i serve? for we heard "blessed are those servants" for the greater glory of God serve others with out any return.
