28 October 2013 - Luke 6:10-15

"Whoever can be trusted with very little" says verse ten
"Can also be trusted with much", again and again
The converse holds true for those who are dishonest
For they will be dishonest with much if put to the test
And "if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth"
"Who will trust you with true riches" without good spiritual health
"No servant can serve two masters" per verse thirteen
For one he will love while for the other hatred will be seen
The Pharisees justified themselves in the eyes of man
But God knew their hearts like only Our Creator can
"What is highly valued among men is detestable in God's sight"
Put another way, what is popular on earth is not always right
 
This passage is often used in relation to finance
Which is natural due to a reading at first glance
But to other aspects of life it applies just as much
In fact, it applies to everything I do or touch
Whether it is money, talents, or opportunities
Each represents a chance that I must seize
To do what pleases God by putting Him first
For in His love I want to be eternally immersed
