Stewards, not Owners

As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
1 Peter 4:10 (NKJV)

All our possessions, from Our Family, Husbands, Wives, Sons, Daughter, Pets, Homes, Congregations, Automobiles, Boats, Positions, Skills, Businesses and even our physical bodies belong to God and we are only given these things as Stewards. Let us be faithful with them; let us nurture them for God's glory.

Let a man so consider us, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God. Moreover it is required in stewards that one be found faithful.
1 Corinthians 4:1-2 (NKJV)

Let us operate with the Steward mentality and not the Owner mentality, for we will give an account someday for all that has been placed in our possession.

Be Encouraged,

Afolabi
