September 10
Introduction
In today’s reading, Jesus uses the parable about a shrewd manager to illustrate that “worldly wealth” can be used to make friends and serve others; but when such wealth runs out, God offers something more valuable – an eternal home with God forever.
Today’s Scripture Reading
Luke 16:1-13
Today’s Key Verse: Luke 16:13
[Jesus said:] “No servant can be the slave of two masters; such a slave will hate one and love the other or will be loyal to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”
Reflect
Why was the shrewd manager praised by his master? Why do you think Jesus told this parable? Reread verses 10-13 in which Jesus explains the implications of the parable. How do you interpret these verses?
Pray
Almighty God, I seek to be among “people who belong to the light” and to serve you with an obedient heart. Keep me faithful and help me to trust in the “true wealth” that you offer – salvation and eternal life with you. Amen.
