When we grasp the true meaning of the parables, our lives will begin to change, and we will be tuned to situations where we can best use our talents. The small faults of others will be overlooked, and we will take accountability for our faults (Luke 6:39-42).
As you delve in, place yourself in the character of each story and identify the truth that will help you discover answers for some difficult questions:
-Is God unfair; why does He allow evil to happen?
-How can we apply the principles of the parables of the persistent friend and the persistent widow into our business career?
-Do we really love our neighbor? The Good Samaritan (Luke 10:30-37) shows us that we must have love and compassion for humanity even if they are of a different nationality or skin color. Many claim that they love their neighbor, but do they really love those neighbors who are difficult to love? Some things are not humanly possible without the help of the Holy Spirit.
Do not neglect to hear the timeless wisdom found in these stories.
He who has ears to hear, let him hear. (Mark 4:9; Luke 8:8, 14:35)
