In September we are focusing on Financial Stewardship...becoming great stewards who manage, multiply, and greatly increase all that God has entrusted to us.

Many people associate hard work and money, but the two are not always related. There are some people who work really hard but don't make us much money as others who work less. Also, consider that a good or bad investment can make or lose a lot of money very quickly with little or no work. 

This is not to imply that we should be lazy... because we have work to do. We are to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness. We are to work to fulfill his plan and purpose for our life and to be a blessing. And we can do so trusting that he will take care of us. 

Today's communion is a time of gratitude that we can trust God to take care of us financially. And we are asking for his help to understand money and effort. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

If something hurts one of the best ways I have found to rehab is to find what you can do with no pain and start there. Then gradually build it back up to full range of motion and then full strength. 

 I am praying for you.
