Your Motivation

This is Alex and his two friends. Stewardship Demonstrated!

So this morning I am reminded that to be a faithful steward is to be centered on God and His objectives instead of a preoccupation with self. We need to strive to demonstrate Christlikeness in your own walk. He was fully devoted to doing God's will leaving judgement for God. As I read I Corinthians 4:1-4, the challenge is to give our all to God, to be faithful in all that we do and to wait for God's approval and not man's. If I may paraphrase the verse, " your clear conscience does not make you innocent, only God can tell whether your stewardship is centered on Him or on your self"

What do you think?

Hi Wapendwa,

I hope your week begun well. I am doing great after finishing my monthly financial report. That was a lot of work! I am encouraged though and want to take pride in work. I thank God and would't want to complain about this noble task. What's on your plate this week, I hope that you will take delight in your work and do it as though it were for the Lord himself, this is what the scripture says in Colossians 3:23 "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men". I have also been going through "Dealing with Self part II" during my quite time. It has been a blessing! Today I read about stewardship and looked at managing my life, material goods, time and abilities as a servant rather than a master. It was humbling to be reminded that everything belongs to God and that we are just privileged servants, given the opportunity to manage. Regarding whatever we may consider as our own wealth, Deuteronomy 8:18 was a clear call to remember the one who gives...."But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth,...." Deuteronomy 18:8.

I am learning a lot and just want to encourage you to look at these materials and share what the Lord is teaching you.

Oh, I forgot to mention this, we had a really good time together this past Sunday, I can't wait for the next E-group lunch! This month our meetings will take place at Alice and Henry's home, Karibuni wote.

Have a blessed week and here are some pictures for those who did not make it.

Amani,

Gideon
