Do you know that Paul mentions the Collections in every one of his Epistles!
And I began to realise that Jesus talks much about money. Never in the sense of “give it to me”. Jesus does not need my money. Australian dollars have no value in Heaven!!!! Jesus tells us in today’s Parable about the unjust steward.
We have mentioned that the details in a Parable is not the important part. The important part is the punch line. So what is the punch line today? “Use money to win you friends”
How can I do this? Clearly be mindful of the poor. We know that everything done for the poor is done for Jesus himself. As Catholics we have many ways of making sacrificial offerings for others. These are not only of great spiritual advantage, they can have rewards in this life. Jesus reminds us that when all our money fails, these people will welcome us into eternity. Check out your heavenly superannuation!!!!! Make sure you have enough for eternal
life!! It is a very long time!!!!!
Jesus doesn’t want your money. Be smart and invest in the future. When money lets you down, Heaven will not fail
you.
I now love preaching about money.
