A legend has been told about a master who had a servant that wasn't very smart. From time to time, his servant's lack of intelligence bothered him. One day, the master became so frustrated he told his servant he must be the least intelligent man he had ever known. The master gave his servant a cane and asked him to carry it with him. "If you ever meet a man who is less intelligent than you, give him the cane.
Many years passed before the servant again got to see his master. By that time, his master was on his death bed. The master told his servant that he was going on a long journey. The servant asked, "how long do you plan to be gone?" The master said, "I'll never be back." The servant asked his master if he was ready for his journey. His master said he wasn't ready. The servant asked, "did you have time to get ready?" "Yes, but I was busy doing other things." Then the servant asked, "Master, you're going on a journey from which you will never return. You had time to get ready, but you didn't do it?" The master said "yes." The servant then took his cane and gave it to his master. He said, finally, I have met a man less intelligent than I."
What is the moral of the story? Don't be so foolish doing other things and not be prepared when death invades time. "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 6:23 NIV

Se ha contado una leyenda sobre un maestro que tenía un sirviente que no era muy inteligente. De vez en cuando, la falta de inteligencia de su sirviente le molestaba. Un día, el maestro se frustró tanto que le dijo a su siervo que debía ser el hombre menos inteligente que jamás había conocido. El maestro le dio un bastón a su siervo y le pidió que lo llevara consigo. "Si alguna vez conoces a un hombre que es menos inteligente que tú, dale el bastón."
Pasaron muchos años antes de que el siervo volviera a ver a su amo. Para entonces, su amo estaba en su lecho de muerte. El maestro le dijo a su siervo que iba a hacer un largo viaje. El siervo preguntó: "¿Cuánto tiempo planeas estar fuera? El maestro dijo, nunca volveré. El siervo le preguntó a su amo si estaba listo para su viaje. Su amo dijo que no estaba listo. El sirviente preguntó: "¿Tuviste tiempo para prepararte?" "Sí, pero estaba ocupado hacienda otras cosas." Entonces el siervo preguntó; "Maestro, vas a hacer un viaje del que nunca regresarás. Tuviste tiempo para prepararte, pero no lo hiciste? El amo dijo que "sí." El sirviente entonces tomó su bastón y se lo dio a su amo. Dijo, "Finalmente, he conocido a un hombre menos inteligente que yo."
¿Cuál es la moraleja de la historia? No seas tan pronto hacienda otras cosas y no estés preparado cuando la muerte invada el tiempo. "Porque la paga del pecado is muerte, mientras que la dádiva de Dios es vida eterna en Cristo Jesús, nuestro Señor." Romanos 6:23 NVI
It only the wise that seek the Lord.
