Stewardship

Dear Lord please be with us this day and please may the Holy Spirit be with us in all things that we try to do and may all things work out alright and for the best. Please help us to be good stewards and take good care of our worldly possessions that you have enabled us to own, but may we not let that ownership shape our values, priorities, attitudes, or other virtues. Please help us find paths that will let our worldly possessions be of assistance in showing paths to others that will lead to Your Kingdom, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

Quotation:
To love is to want to give and above all give oneself. A perfect love is the perfect gift of oneself without thought of reward or return. -Stuart

KJV
1Co 4:1 Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.
1Co 4:2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.
1Co 4:3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.
1Co 4:4 For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.

1Pe 4:10 As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
1Pe 4:11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
