Luke 16:10 “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.
Our words and actions flow out of our hearts. What we say, what we do, reflect what we love and value. So I can talk all day long about my love for my Savior, but if my actions don’t line up with my talk, my heart isn’t in the right place.
Luke 16:11 So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?
I’ve done a lot of good in my life. If I focus only on that, I can feel pretty smug about the state of my heart (which is a problem in and of itself), but I’ve been incredibly honest about my shortcomings—my fear and worry, my bitterness and anger. Clearly, I still have work to do.
Luke 16:12 And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else’s property, who will give you property of your own?
Lord, Thank You for whispering to my heart daily. Thank You for the good I am able to put out into this world. Thank You also for the knowledge that I still have work to do, that there are strongholds in my heart that still need to be surrendered to You. Help me, Jesus. Amen.
Luke 16:13 “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.”
Have a blessed day. I love you.
