In the Parable of the Unjust Steward (Luke 16:1-13), why does Jesus commend the steward's shrewdness?

A Because the steward made friends using worldly wealth, teaching a lesson about wisdom in dealing with earthly resources. B Because the steward demonstrated initiative, a quality Jesus valued, even if misdirected. C Because the steward's actions were ultimately forgiven by his master due to his remorse. D Because the steward's actions reduced the financial burden on the poor, aligning with Jesus' teachings.
