Today's Reading - Genesis 1 and 3 and Luke 16 1-13
We trust God, maybe in totality, but a question we need to ask ourselves is this: can God trust me?
This is a personal question and needs to be probably asked by each of us of ourselves.
Unfulfilled vows, so small we may have forgotten. Unkept promises to God and to fellow man, misuse of resources provided by employers, friends, or God Himself, are all indicators of untrustworthiness.
Man has a white washed memory, that is, we tend to forget things which are not convenient, even though we had committed to them. So it is not easy to remember. When we ask of ourselves, in complete honesty, we need to make the effort and remember where all we committed such acts of omission.
In the professional world, the hallmark of quality is simply doing what we have promised to do. But do we ? Do we do personal stuff on the employers time? Do we use official resources for personal work? Do we use God given talents for His use or do we just ignore them. Do we while away official time?
Like the steward or the manager, we have been entrusted with some resources, by our employers, by God, by friends etc. What are we doing with those resources?
