You know what to do

This past Sunday, we had the story of the dishonest steward.  It is confusing at best.  However, if I step back and look at it as whole something comes into focus.  If I begin with the premise that Jesus is talking about me when he is talking about the dishonest steward, what is he saying.  He's saying we know what to do to make things happen in this world. We know our gifts.  We swing into action. However, it seems different in our life of faith.  We sit in church and worry about our declining numbers.  What if it was our business instead of the church.  Would we sit still and fret?  No, we would take action.  If someone in our family was in need, would we form a committee to form a plan to do something.  No, we would act.  We would find the time.  We would find the resources.  We would make the sacrifices.  In looking at this parable, maybe Jesus is saying, people of God you know what to do, do it.
