A CALL TO STEWARD: IT ALL BELONGS TO GOD




A CALL TO STEWARD: IT ALL BELONGS TO GOD

"The Lord has made everything for His own purposes." - Proverbs 16:4

Everything created by God is meant to reflect His glory. However, this is no longer the case after man's fall. Man is the zenith of God's creation, made in His very image and likeness.

As believers, we have been redeemed. It is now our task and obligation to bring glory to God by being the light of the world (Matthew 5:14-16). St. Irenaeus said, "The glory of God is a human being fully alive." When anything in creation fulfills its purpose, it brings glory to its Maker. Our lives should be lived in fulfillment of the purpose we were created for. The purpose of a light bulb cannot be confused with that of a fridge. They are not even in competition; each is unique by itself.

Action Points for the Week:

1. Reflect on Your Purpose: Spend time in prayer and meditation, asking God to reveal His purpose for your life.

2. Be the Light: Look for opportunities to be a light in your community. This could be through acts of kindness, sharing your faith, or simply being a positive influence.

3. Embrace Your Uniqueness: Recognize that you have a unique role to play in God's plan. Avoid comparing yourself to others and focus on fulfilling your specific purpose.

4. Glorify God in Your Daily Tasks: Whether at work, home, or in your community, do everything with the intention of glorifying God.

5. Encourage Others: Support and encourage others to discover and live out their God-given purposes.

What Drives You?

What Drives You? Have you ever paused to ask yourself, “What drives me?” Why do you do what you do? Why is it important to you? Is it your personal choice to do it? Take a moment to reflect on these questions. Our past shapes us, but it doesn’t have to dictate our future. God is a God of second chances and even third chances. He hasn’t given up on us; He is still pursuing even the one sheep missing from the pen. As 2 Peter 3:9 (NLT) reminds us:  “The Lord isn’t really being slow about his promise, as some people think. No, he is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent.” Think about what truly motivates you. Is it a passion, a calling, or a sense of duty? Reflect on how God’s patience and grace have given you the opportunity to pursue your purpose. Embrace these second chances and move forward with renewed determination and faith. Action Point: This week, set aside some quiet time to journal about your motivations a...

Raising Children with Purpose: Parenting Through Obedience, Seasons, and Stewardship

“So David did as God commanded him...” – 1 Chronicles 14:16 (AMPC) Parenting is one of the most sacred and significant roles entrusted to us by God. It requires more than love and provision—it demands discernment, obedience, and a deep understanding of God’s timing and purpose. Through biblical reflection, we find timeless wisdom to guide us in stewarding our children well. In this article, this week we draw lessons from three foundational scriptures that highlight obedience, purpose, and financial wellness in parenting. 1. Obedience Is Not Optional  “So David did as God commanded him...” – 1 Chronicles 14:1 David's success in battle was not because he relied on past strategies but because he returned to God for direction each time. This highlights a profound truth: God does not always repeat patterns, even if they previously worked. Parenting, likewise, requires fresh instruction from God for each child, because each child carries a unique blueprint. No two children ar...
