32 “Do not be afraid, little flock, because your Father is well pleased to give you the kingdom.
33 Sell your possessions and give charitable gifts. Make for yourselves money bags that do not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven where thief does not approach or moth destroy.
34 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
35 “You must be prepared for action and your lamps burning.
36 And you, be like people who are waiting for their master when he returns from the wedding feast, so that when he comes back and knocks, they can open the door for him immediately.
37 Blessed are those slaves whom the master will find on the alert when he returns! Truly I say to you that he will dress himself for service and have them recline at the table and will come by and serve them.
38 Even if he should come back in the second or in the third watch of the night and find them like this, blessed are they!
