The 10 Virgins

The 10 virgins were all equipped to go out, but only 5 were equipped to meet the bridegroom! Matthew 25 talks about the 5 foolish and 5 wise who all were waiting and fell asleep. There was a distinct difference between 5 of them....one group was in expectation, which lead them to preparation and in the end....thye ended up with the bridegroom in a celebration.

What causes folk to think that all they need is "just enough" when you try to anticipate an arrival from God? What are your thoughts on the decisions that were made in this story, and what conclusions do you draw from how that parable relates to the church?
