Lk16

What we do with our money matters to God! Money makes a horrible lover. If we love money, it will own us. If we love God, we will use our money in a way that is honoring to Him.

Our culture loves money. The more you have of it, the more "value" you have. The more "freedom" you have. The more "happiness" you have. The less "stress" you have. Etc. This is what our culture believes and teaches. In fact, most of our decisions are financial decisions. Where we work, the major we choose, the car we drive, the clothes we where, etc. It is as though money is our God. We are slaves of money.

Jesus was very clear, "You can't be a slave to both God and money." If you are a slave to money, you are not serving God. On the other hand, if you are a lover of God, money has great value. If we are faithful with this "unrighteous money", then we will be faithful with "true riches of the kingdom". Money is simply a test. It test our love. 

Us money to serve God. Don't be a slave to money. Or it will use and abuse you!!!!
