Sunday Reflection (September 22, 2019)
On the one hand, wealth can be used wisely to help other people, gain friendships, or to secure a financial future. On the other hand, our use of wealth may magnify our inclination to take advantage of situations that benefit only us and no one else. Jesus warns us to not be captivated by the corrupting influence of wealth (Luke 16:1-13).
May we take advantage of what God has given us for good purposes. We all have gifts, we all have possession, yes some more than others, but do not let that prevent you from questioning yourself about what you do with what you possess. May we take advantage of situations to enrich the quality of human life as representative of Christ’s Church.
