Now if you will show kindness and faithfulness to my master, tell me; and if not, tell me, so I may know which way to turn. The servant's directness is the directness of a man with a clear mission. He does not ask for a vague expression of openness; he asks for a yes or a no. Matthew 5:37 calls for yes or no. The application: when a significant decision is on the table, asking for a clear answer — rather than leaving it in indefinite openness — serves everyone better.
