A rich man....
Heavenly Father, I know that with
You all things are possible. When
I am faced with the challenges of
everyday life, I pray for Your guiding
strength. Should I fall behind,
help me to stand up and keep trying.
Give me the strength to never give up. Amen.
Luke 16:1-8
Jesus said to his disciples, "A rich man had a steward
who was reported to him for squandering his property.
He summoned him and said,
'What is this I hear about you?
Prepare a full account of your stewardship,
because you can no longer be my steward.'
The steward said to himself, 'What shall I do,
now that my master is taking the position of steward away from me?
I am not strong enough to dig and I am ashamed to beg.
I know what I shall do so that,
when I am removed from the stewardship,
they may welcome me into their homes.'
He called in his master's debtors one by one.
To the first he said, 'How much do you owe my master?'
He replied, 'One hundred measures of olive oil.'
He said to him, 'Here is your promissory note.
Sit down and quickly write one for fifty.'
Then to another, he said, 'And you, how much do you owe?'
He replied, 'One hundred measures of wheat.'
He said to him, 'Here is your promissory note;
write one for eighty.'
And the master commended that dishonest steward for acting prudently.
For the children of this world
are more prudent in dealing with their own generation
than the children of light."
Refection question: How do I bring the light of Christ to others?
How can we pray for you?
Did you know that you can submit a prayer request to us Franciscan Friars? We want to support you in your daily prayers and join in praying for you and your loved ones. When you submit your petition to us, your intentions will be remembered at Mass and in the prayers.
Peace and all good,
