We are called as God’s stewards. As the parable of the man and his servants, we will be called to account for our talents - our time, finances, abilities, knowledge, and leadership. If God has blessed you, won’t you give of yourself to others, becoming a channel of His divine love? When you do, be ready to hear the splendid words, “Well done, good and faithful servant!” (Matthew 25:21)

“Every faculty you have, your power of thinking or of moving your limbs from moment to moment, is given you by God. If you devoted every moment of your whole life exclusively to His service, you could not give Him anything that was not in a sense His own already.”
- C. S. Lewis, Mere Christianity |
