"Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be rusted with much, an whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?" -- Luke 16:10-11


Who gives you life?  God does.  Can you give God life?  No, but you can give your life to God through the managing of your resources that are limited.  That means not squandering your money on things of no value.  It means being grateful for what you have and not bitter for not having what you want.  And it means using your most precious resource-- time, wisely.  When you give your life to God, you employ your resources in a way that honors him.  This is what "stewardship" is about.  

How are you glorifying God in the way you manage your life?
