PROVERBS 17: 2


 
Been a son doesn’t guarantee you get all your father’s inheritance and still doesn’t guarantee you get part of it.

The Greek woman (mark 7:25-30), she was not the son (not the qualified son) but she was around when the son wasn’t, she ran to the father when the son didn’t, she asked when the qualified son wouldn’t.

She knew herself to be a servant and Jesus threw that at her face, but she wouldn’t mind the insult, even if am not your son “yet the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs”. Even if am not your legitimate son, I at least stick around you, always under your table, more available than your real son.

Exactly the message, if you as a son feels too important to make yourself available for your father’s use, there are many servants out there that just wish to touch the helm of his garment but you have access to the full garment and do nothing with it.

God is not a respecter of persons, wouldn’t give to the servant what belongs to the son but he will give to each according as to the work of their hands.

As a son don’t expect too much if you are putting in too little effort.
