Day 2: The Illusion of Control: Ownership vs. Stewardship
When the rich man surveyed his barns, he saw a future of comfort and ease. What he failed to realize is that he was merely a steward of these resources, not the ultimate owner. Everything we have is entrusted to us by God, and we are not owners but managers.
This parable exposes the illusion of control that comes with financial prosperity.
When we accumulate wealth, it's easy to think we have tamed the future. But true financial freedom lies in understanding that we are managers (or stewards), not owners, of what we have.
Let’s pray:
Heavenly Father, grant me the wisdom to be a responsible steward of the resources You’ve entrusted to me. Help me to hold them with open hands, ready to use them according to Your will. Amen.
