I Will Give You More

I am a steward of what God has given me, and if I am a faithful steward, He will give me more. Matthew 25:21 says, “His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful slave. You were faithful with a few things, I will put you in charge of many things;” I am a steward of the money He has given me, of my talents, gifts, and abilities, I am a steward of the time He has given me, and the opportunities. The ultimate stewardship item is people, I get the opportunity to teach, mentor, and shepherd people. In Luke 16:11 Jesus says, “Therefore if you have not been faithful in the use of unrighteous wealth, who will entrust the true riches to you?” True riches I would see as people, so if I don’t steward money well God won’t entrust me with people. One of the more difficult things to be a faithful steward of is our time. Ephesians 5:15-16 “Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil.” I want to make good use of my time to accomplish more with my life, but I also want to be a good steward of my time because I am earning the right from God to be given responsibility over more people. I want to be a good steward so that I get more and more and more.

    You said: “I want to make good use of my time to accomplish more with my life, but I also want to be a good steward of my time because I am earning the right from God to be given responsibility over more people.”
    I’ve never made that connection before.
