Self Reflection with God's Word
The prodigal manager did a very wise thing. He had some self examination about what he did and must do next. This wont guarantee a course correction but you wont have one without it. To be able to see your actions for what they gave caused in others is beneficial.
Luke 16:3“Then the steward said within himself, ‘What shall I do? For my master is taking the stewardship away from me. I cannot dig; I am ashamed to beg. 4‘I have resolved what to do, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses. 5 "So he called every one of his master’s debtors to him, and said to the first, ‘How much do you owe my master?’
The steward said within himself what his actions has done as contrasted to the religious leaders who constantly said within themselves how wrong Jesus was and looking down upon others.
Can you see how sinful and wretched you can be? Do you take the short time required to examine yourself to see if your living in the faith of Christ? It is a brutal awareness to see us as sinners but we must because we are. If you are living in such a way that you cant remember the last time you apologized to another for YOUR actions, you are not getting this message. I seem to be constantly repenting due to my flawed flesh. Not on purpose do I sin but does that really matter? Humility leads to repentance which then leads to joy.
