Transcript

Alright, thank you very much. And hello again my dear radio friend. How in the world are you? You know, when I give that little corny greeting, which is now I guess become kind of a trademark, people expect me to, to use it even when I’m speaking in churches and other meetings. (Laughs) How in the world are you? Oh they like that. But you know, when I use that greeting, I have in my mind, photographs of many of you on the wall of memory; dear, dear people who have become part of my own life and experience. And so you may be sure that I’m thinking of you when I say, “How in the world are you?”

You don’t get much inspiration talking into a piece of hardware, the microphone. But oh, what an impact it makes when I think of those precious folk now by the hundreds, and maybe up into the thousands, that I’ve met during many years of ministry. And I do care how you are, bless your heart. I hope it’s a good day for you. Or if you’re just finishing the day, as many of you are, I hope you’ll have a restful night. And if you fall asleep while I’m talking, don’t worry. I’ve spoken in many people’s sleep. (Laughs) Go right ahead, God bless you. Thanks for being there.

We talked about, “Honor the King.” And then servants, if you’re a domestic in the house — is the word that Peter uses here doulos. If you’re a, a domestic in the house, if you’re a servant… And we broadened the expression to mean ‘employees in our days because we don’t have slaves as such, do we? “Employees, be subject to your boss, with all fear.” And that’s the idea of respect and awe. Not only to the good and gentle boss, but also to the froward boss. That word ‘froward’ means ‘impossible’, ‘cranky’, ‘crabby’, ‘critical’, ‘can’t be satisfied’, everything’s always wrong’, ‘why didn’t you do it better’, and ‘why don’t you do more’ — that’s ‘froward’, all right?

Are you working for that kind of a person perhaps? They do exist in this world. I’ve seen and, and had experiences with some of them. There are people whom you absolutely cannot please it would seem. And you think to yourself, “There must be an easier way to die, let me get outta here!” Well it may be that God in His wisdom will give you another position somewhere. Pray about your job, God has ways of doing things.
