"I choose Christ' will over my own because I study finance. I have considered all that I may get in this life via my intellect, ability, and wit, versus the eternal glory that comes with giving myself to the work and will of my God. I chose God's will, since he promised that if I store up treasures in Heaven, it will be unlike the treasures of the earth - it will be eternal!"
I have been rocked by Monday night's bible study. Josh spoke on the topic of stewardship; specifically speaking about the preciousness of time, and the importance of handling money with maturity. Expounding on the fact that all things - even our time and money, are given by God, Josh asked some questions that I believe has revolutionized my thinking. The first question is..."how much of God's time will I use for myself?" and the next..."how much of God's money will I keep for myself?" I love the way these questions were asked, as they carry clear connotations and serious reminders of God being the giver of things I have. I look forward to putting these things into practice, and redeeming the time. I have nothing else to add but this pray: "Lord, teach us to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom"(Psa 90:12).
