Life Lessons from the 10 Virgins (Matthew 25:1–13) This story isn’t just about oil and lamps—it’s about life, readiness, and personal growth. Here’s what it teaches us today: Stay Ready – Opportunities and challenges don’t always give warnings. Be prepared, even in the quiet seasons. You Can’t Borrow Growth – Wisdom, discipline, and faith aren’t transferable. Do your own inner work. Time Has Limits – Some doors in life don’t stay open forever. Don’t delay what truly matters. Look Beyond Appearances – All 10 had lamps, but only 5 had oil. Substance beats image—every time. Keep Watch – Stay awake to life’s deeper purpose. Be present, be intentional, be ready. The message is simple: don’t just carry the lamp—make sure you’ve got the oil. #knowledge #LifeLessons #StayReady #gbemiking
