Shrewd manager

LUK 16:9-13 NIV

I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings.     "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.  So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?  And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else's property, who will give you property of your own?     "No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money."

Am I being obedient to the Lord with the financial resources that He has put in my care?  Am I using money to build the Kingdom or my fiefdom?

Heavenly Father, I want to be a good steward.  I want to be faithful and trustworthy.  Please show me how I am not using money the way you want, and lead me to live honorably and righteously.   I love you, and I pray in the name of Jesus.
