STEWARDSHIP
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: Matt. 20:9
“And when those
hired about the eleventh hour came, each of them received a denarius.” Behold the generosity of God! He gives out of His grace, not what we
deserve to receive. Living a godly life
means living in imitation of God – and surely one of the foundations of God’s
being is His generosity.
T BLESSINGS ON YOUR WEEK! T
