Scripture:Luke 16:1-8
He also said to the disciples, "There was a rich man who had a steward, and charges were brought to him that this man was wasting his goods. And he called him and said to him, `What is this that I hear about you? Turn in the account of your stewardship, for you can no longer be steward.' And the steward said to himself, `What shall I do, since my master is taking the stewardship away from me? I am not strong enough to dig, and I am ashamed to beg. I have decided what to do, so that people may receive me into their houses when I am put out of the stewardship.' So, summoning his master's debtors one by one, he said to the first, `How much do you owe my master?' He said, `A hundred measures of oil.' And he said to him, `Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.' Then he said to another, `And how much do you owe?' He said, `A hundred measures of wheat.' He said to him, `Take your bill, and write eighty.' The master commended the dishonest steward for his shrewdness; for the sons of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than the sons of light."
Reflection:
Simple ra karajaw an mensahe dinhi ni Jesus: gamita an tanan nimo na mga katigajonan o resources para ‘kaw mahilangit.
Nagamit gajud nan marú na steward an ija pagka-maldito kay sa tagsalig dija nan agalon na mga propedad, ija man ‘sab taghimo ini na kapital para ‘sab mokitâ sija nan dakô, pagkatapos, nagamit ra gihapon ini nija para malibre sija sa kasip’ganan.
Nakapangandam an maldito kay nahibayo na man daan sija kon uno’y ija dangatan pag-abot na panahon.
"Lord Jesus, all that I have is a gift from you. May I love you freely and generously with all that I possess. Help me to be a wise and faithful steward of the resources you put at my disposal, including the use of my time, money, and possessions."
