Transactions Require Trust

Listen to the Podcast

In September we are starting a new focus with The Financial Stewardship Challenge...

We are focusing on becoming great stewards who manage, multiply, and greatly increase all that God has entrusted to us.

Trust is one of the biggest keys to both finances and stewardship. All financial transactions require trust, and when trust is high money flows. When we exchange money with others, we want to know that they are going to do what they said, are skilled and knowledgeable, are not going to rip us off, and that they have good intentions. 

Part of our role in being stewards is becoming highly trustworthy... which means we need to keep our word, be highly skilled and knowledgeable, and have good intentions to be a blessing in all transactions. The more trustworthy we are the more money flows to us. 

Today's communion is a time of gratitude that God is the ultimate example of someone who is trustworthy, and we can put our full trust in him. And we are asking for his help to become highly trustworthy people. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

I once heard a high-level bodybuilder talking about the importance of his body trusting him, which meant he would take a gentler approach with his health and fitness rather than trying to force the body to change. If we think about our bodies being symbolic of the body of Christ this makes a lot of sense. Jesus wants his body to trust him, and he is gentle with us. 

I am praying for you.
