The dishonest steward was a rascal with few redeeming qualities. He stole from his employer and blackmailed his friends. Yet he got away with it, because he took prompt and clever action when his position was threatened. The fact is God demands from each of us an accounting of our stewardship and we had better be prepared to give it. Clever excuses do not always work. We can be far better prepared if we can prove that we serve God as enthusiastically as we serve ourselves. Many Christians would fail this test.
