An audit today - how would you fair? Luke 16:1,2

Good morning everyone! God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED! 

     Well!? What is happening in your world today?  Are you a good Christian? A good steward of what God has provided for you?  How would you stand up under an audit?  A job performance evaluation of what you have done for God?  Are you faithful, dedicated, and 100% christian on Sunday morning?  Does this carry over in the afternoon? On Monday? Tuesday? Wednesday? Daily?

   Luke 16:1,2 "Jesus told this story to his disciples: "There was a certain rich man who had a manager handling his affairs.  One day a report came that the manager was wasting his employer's money.  So the employer called him in and said, 'What's this I hear about you?  Get your report in order, because you are going to be fired.""

   So often we read this and relate it to money only.  I borrowed this excerpt from Pastor Mark Jeske, as I believe he says it quite well.  --Jesus is telling you this story to encourage you to see yourself as a manager, not an owner. All your stuff is really God's, and he seems to think that you are accountable to him for the way in which you accumulate it and spend it. Is he Lord of your checkbook? Your portfolio? Your real estate? If he audited you today to analyze how you are managing his property, would you be proud or terrified?
         Are you truly a good manager of all that God has given you?  Take time today to sit, even if just for 120 seconds, listen and tune in to God.  Take time to reflect on all God has given you.  How fortunate you are!  One thing God has given you that you can share is His grace, His salvation, His love.  Be a mouthpiece, speak to at least one person for the sole purpose of sharing God's word. Do this daily. A challenge.
      I share the word and invite people to church daily!  Do they come?  Most don't, but you know what?  I have planted the seed that God wants me to plant - now God can nurture and water that seed until it sprouts and blossums into a beautiful flower.  Go forth!  Take time!  Jesus did!
     Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
