A little is a lot


After Luke 16:1-13

Being faithful in a little
holds the promise and likelihood
of being faithful in a lot,
and the converse is true:
being dishonest in a little 
holds the possibility and likelihood
of being dishonest in a lot.

A little is a lot,
and the money aside,
what will you do
with true riches, true wealth;
what will you do
with the great blessing 
entrusted to you. A choice:
serve one or serve the other.
Both demand complete devotion,
and you must choose between
a little and a lot.
