Jesus told this story to give an
example of how clever, intelligent,
perceptive people can be when their
own best interests compel them to
act with foresight regarding their
future.
We all think about the future.
But we often don’t think far
enough into the future, that is,
into eternity.
If the people of this world use what resources they
have to further their own interests, how much
more should the followers of Jesus use what
resources they have to further the interests of the
kingdom of God.
Just like the shrewd manager
prepared for his future, so we too
ought to shrewdly prepare for
eternity.

16. 16
“It’s all about YOUR kingdom.”
Money says
“It’s all about MY kingdom.”
Jesus says
People are more important than our stuff.
Therefore, let’s use our stuff to make friends that will last forever.
