Some athletes and entertainers make enormous sums of money. I can see why they would accept whatever they could get, but I have to question about a society that spends so much money on entertainment when there are so many hungry and homeless people in the world.
Our financial attitudes and practices serve as a gauge of our spiritual well-being. It shows whether we are heedlessly focusing on the here and now or prudently looking to eternity.
Jesus related a parable about a money manager who was aware he was about to lose his job because he had mismanaged the company's resources. He then went to the debtors and gave them a receipt that said, "Paid in Full" for a partial payment.
This earned him their favor so that he wouldn't have to beg for assistance when he lost his work. Despite the fact that his employer was undoubtedly dissatisfied since he didn't get everything he was due, he praised the man for his cunning.
That tale serves as an example of the prudent use of money when considering eternity. The individuals who accept Christ will be our friends forever and will welcome us when we get in paradise. We can use our money today to aid in the spread of the gospel.
Money cannot buy pleasure or eternal existence. But it yields eternal returns when invested in Christ's cause.
The prudent use of money yields enduring benefits. Some people believe they have it all when wealth comes their way, but God's reckoning day will make their poverty very clear.
