Much Will Be Required Of Those Who Have Been Given Much

Luke 12:48–"Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required..."

This is one of those distinctly Christian principles: that those who have been blessed are responsible to reflect that blessing unto others.  To be sure, this instills an immense responsibility to those who have been blessed.  In truth, though, every person has been blessed with immense riches beyond measure. Thus, by extension, everyone of us is to be held accountable for the gifts that God has given us. Keeping this perspective before us will go a long way to keeping our focus fixed and our feet from wandering.
