    Our hearts will be where our treasure is. Those who are greedy and anxious about stuff put their emphasis on worldly goods. Those who trust in God’s provision invest their hearts in heaven.

    All of us are stewards. Does that seem strange to you? Well, it shouldn’t. All of us have responsibilities over one corner or another of God’s household. Just as we have to look after our own households, we also have to look after the part of God’s household that he has given us ...read more

All of us have things that we have to take care of especially if we have received it as a gift. Do you know someone else who have given us things ...read more

    The two parables here serve to caution us about slacking off in kingdom work. We need to keep our waist girded and be ready for service; and be alert and watchful at all times, so we don’t miss opportunities to share the love of Christ.
