What do we do with what we’ve got?

Luke 16:1  And he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.

2  And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.

3  Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed. 

4  I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses. 

5  So he called every one of his lord's debtors unto him, and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?

6  And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.

7  Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore. 

8  And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light. 

9  And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.

10  He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much. 

11  If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? 

12  And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?

13  No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

There is a lot of opinions with these scriptures but the context of this is what do we do with what is trusted to us? It is what will we do with the things no one can account for? To determine if we stole in secrete or put part aside and say I deserve this bud my employer will not pay it to me anyway.

This parable is of course what God trusted us with and we cannot hide anything from God thought. But there is this excuse we use; I have earned it; I can do with it what I please. That is the mistake we make and the reason we sometimes don’t get to the riches. Maybe we love money more than God sometimes.

Everything we have is of God, God created everything for His pleasure.
