Food for thoughts

It is a responsibility, a great responsibility, to have great wealth. As much is required of those to whom much is given...

We are called to be good stewards of God. If one has great wealth, we are to be good stewards of the wealth given or bestowed. What is wealth? Literally it means riches, money... but what is your wealth?

Good stewards means that we cant afford to be irresponsible, to be extravagant indulgence... or mishandled the "wealth" given. However this does not mean that we could not have material possessions or could not have the enjoyment of material things...

As the Bible says in 1 Tim 6:17 Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so unceratin but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.
