Stewardship by Jacqueline and Marcel Bruff

As believers, we are called to be stewards of God's abundant resources, managing them wisely for His glory. In ancient times, a steward was entrusted with overseeing their master's estate, making decisions that would increase its value. Similarly, we are tasked with caring for God's creation, finances, time, and relationships.

God doesn't micromanage; He trusts us to use our skills and wisdom to grow His kingdom. As stewards, our decisions should reflect His heart, prioritizing His purposes over personal gain. "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's varied gifts." (1 Peter 4:10)

Our role is to manage God's resources faithfully, seeking what advances His kingdom. This means aligning our choices with Scripture, caring for the poor, and using our gifts to serve others. "The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it" (Psalm 24:1) reminds us that everything we have belongs to God.

As "guardians of the house," we steward God's gifts with gratitude and integrity. Let’s prioritize His priorities, trusting He’ll provide what we need. "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much..." (Luke 16:10)

Dear Heavenly Father, help us be faithful stewards of Your resources, trusting Your provision and seeking Your glory in all we do. Amen.

Marcel and Jackie Bruff
