STEWARDSHIP
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: Matthew 16:27
“For the Son of
Man is going to come with His angels in the glory of His Father, and then He
will repay each person according to what he has done.” St. Paul talks about rewards on the Last Day in
1 Cor. 3, and Jesus says more about this “repaying” in Matt. 19:27-30. Bottom line:
your good works can’t buy you heaven, but in Christ your good works do
matter; they’re pleasing your Heavenly Father, and they will be rewarded. In other words: your sacrifices for the
Lord’s Kingdom are not in vain, they are not unnoticed by your Father. This should encourage you in your
faithfulness.
T BLESSINGS ON YOUR WEEK! T
