Use money to make friends.

And Jesus went on to say, "And so I tell you: make friends for yourselves with worldly wealth, so that when it gives out, you will be welcomed in the eternal home. Luke 16:9 GNB

Here Jesus tells people, make friends using worldly wealth. It does not mean buy the people around you. Friendship will never be established if you think you can buy people. True friendship has to be established in mutual respect. When you think you own people you will truly respect them. Use your resources properly. treat people nicely and make friends.Save for the future but do not horde. Be generous by allowing your blessings to overflow to the lives of others. Share what you have because your heavenly Father will never abandon you at your time of need. He will always be there for you. Though people differ in their capabilities in being stewards of God's resources, it does not negate that God still is and will always be more than enough. And when he provides, He does so with extra so we can have excess for every good work. Money is neither good nor evil. It can be a tool that helps or a deadly weapon that can be very destructive and damaging. Use money, don't let money use you. 4 November
