Readiness at Any Hour

44For this reason, you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you do not expect.45Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of his household, to give the others their food at the proper time?46Blessed is that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns.
