I was listening to the radio this past week and heard something new about stewardship. It's probably been said before but somewhere between my ears and my brain it hasn't connected.
Biblical farmers grew crops and gave the first fruits of their harvest to God.
Most of us work 8-5 and receive a paycheck and grumble about how much the government and God demand. There's nothing left for us to spend!
But following scripture means we should do everything like we're working for the Lord. So that 8-5 job... we're working for the Lord. So that 8-5 paycheck... is what we have to give to the Lord (since we were doing it for him anyway). God wants us to be productive members of society, labor in honor of his love, sacrifice our harvests, and love doing it! Because we will get far greater in return. Eternal rewards.
