Expectations

He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much. If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own? (Luke 16:10-12 KJV)

What I have observed in the church is that the expectations of God from us is one of the least approached topics. God looks for faithfulness from His children. Here in these scriptures it is shown as something that is important. It is a measure of our trustworthiness in the handling of the things of the kingdom. Faithfulness in the handling of finances even that are not yours. Taking care of something that belongs to others shows that the responsibility is there for more that is your own.
In Matthew 25:14-30 shows us that the good and faithful servants were each rewarded with the invitation to enter into the joy of the Lord and the one servant that had gotten less to work with than the other two, didn't meet any of the expectations of the master and was not rewarded. And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. (Matthew 25:30 KJV)
Adam and Eve were told to be fruitful and multiply so from the begining we see that God has expectations and the body of Christ needs to be made aware once again that this is so. What does God expect from you personally?
