Our fortune

Many of you have heard at least a version of Luke 12:48, something along of the lines of "unto whom much is given, much will be required."  Seems fair, right?  But sometimes I'm overwhelmed by this concept, because I feel that I have been blessed with so much in my life, and yet I wonder if I'm doing enough in return.  Do I really give enough of myself at work, at home, to my friends, family and community?  What is it that has been/will be required of me?  It's humbling to be reminded that everything we have has been given to us, and we shouldn't be mistaken with the belief that we earn or somehow deserve any of it. 
 
Here's to remembering we are blessed, friends.  Happy Thanksgiving!
