day laborers for the Kingdom


Tony Jones, while interviewing a conservative critic of his, was asked (in paraphrase) when he had accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior. His response was, "every morning."

There seems to be something to that; following Jesus is a day to day operation, rather than a once and for all event. I'm reminded of this having read the Gospel lesson for Sunday; the landowner is always out looking for new talent, we are just called to be ready to work.
