Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful. (1 Corinthians 4:2)
Can I be trusted? Completely?
It is a hard spirit to develop, because we cannot develop it until we are faced with the temptation not to be faithful. And we see every day how people fail when tested. The news is full of it.
But it all starts with the little things.
It’s easier to avoid the temptation to cheat on your taxes, or your spouse, if you make sure you never cheat at cards.
It’s easier to never steal money from your work if you make sure you never steal paperclips.
It’s easier to always obey the law if you’ve never gone through a red robot.
So today, I will start at the bottom, and work my way up.
