One of the most sobering parts of this Scripture is that we will be held responsible for the misuse of our time, opportunities, and abilities. One day we will have to answer for all the time we have wasted. The time that we waste scrolling on social media, watching television, or playing games on our phones, we will have to give an account to God for that. God wants us to maximize our talents and abilities. He wants us to maximize our potential so that we can have a bigger impact on this world for the kingdom of God. Every now and then, we must examine ourselves. We must examine our motives, our goals, and our purposes. Are we in God’s perfect will or His permissive will? Are we doing what He wants or what we want? We must be like Jesus. His desire was not to do His own will. His desire was to do the will of the One who sent Him. True fulfillment is walking in His will, not ours.
