Stewardship Concept!

“And the LORD God took the man and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.” Genesis 2:15

A man has a farm close to his old house. He usually takes his family there on a free day to help on his farm. But since the family left the place and moved to the city, it is no longer convenient to work on the farm as often. So, the farmer decided to hire someone who continues to look after it.

The owner checks it once in a while to make sure that all things are going according to plan. However, the last time the owner checked his farm, he was not satisfied with the results. The young man he employed did not manage the farm diligently, and the productivity is not encouraging.

All living beings are like this young man. He was given a farm to tend, just like God gave us our life and everything we have to manage. Intuitively, we own many things and feel like we have gotten them by ourselves, but the truth is that we don’t have anything. God gave all of them, and He often checks what you are doing with them. He does care if you are doing well or not. He cares about the prosperity of your soul’s well-being, health, and so on.

The president of a nation is still a steward in God’s hand. I have discovered that the more we grow, the higher the responsibilities on us. And all the things you have in your care are what God wants you to manage. Henceforth, be conscious of God’s ownership of all things, this would enhance your heart of gratitude unto him. And the more you appreciate Him, the more He blesses you. “Moreover, it is required in stewards that one be found faithful.” 1 Corinthians 4:2

Prayer:
1. Lord, thank you for all you’ve done for me. I ask that you guide me to use everything you’ve given me wisely.
2. Every spirit of wasted effort, resource waster, in my surroundings catch fire in Jesus’ name.
