All the Household - A place for Lutherans who want to use the Church's calendar to center their household life around the Church's Lord.
Stewardship
Luke 14:11 – “For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.” “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom” (Prov. 9:10). That’s called humility. The Lord is God, and we are not. With that in mind, how could we not seek to follow His Word in all aspects of life? Once we see His love for us in the cross of Christ, how could we not trust Him? He knows what He is talking about, and we don’t. He loves us and wants to bless us. If you believe that, then striking out on a path of faithfulness in the realm of stewardship is a lot easier. It just makes sense.
“We care about that precious baby, but we also care about the mom. We care about that woman who is haunted by the guilt and shame of a past abortion … We care because Jesus cares for us. We love because God first loved us. And this we know! Our Lord Jesus—who died for us and took away all of our sin and guilt and shame—is risen and ascended to the Father’s throne. JESUS LIVES! THE VICTORY’S WON!” Pastor Paul Clark, LFL of Michigan - A Life Quote from Lutherans For Life www.lutheransforlife.org
