All that we have – every resource and every breath – belongs to the Lord. These are gifts placed into our hands to steward well. From the air we breathe to the talents we possess, everything is given to us by our Creator. The question we must ask ourselves is: Have we been faithful in stewarding the opportunities given to us?

Our jobs may be tiring, our studies difficult, and our families exasperating at times. However, we’ve been given these gifts and placed in these circumstances for a divine reason. God has entrusted us with these responsibilities, not as burdens, but as opportunities to reflect His glory and to grow in His likeness.

The Apostle Paul reminds us in Colossians 3:17, “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” This verse challenges us to approach every aspect of our lives with gratitude and purpose, recognizing that everything we do can be an act of worship.

In our workplaces, let us work diligently and with integrity, knowing that our efforts honor God. In our studies, let us pursue knowledge and wisdom with a heart of thankfulness, recognizing that our minds are gifts to be developed for His glory. In our families, let us love and serve with patience and kindness, reflecting the love that God has so generously poured out on us.

May this be your encouragement today to persevere in being faithful in all that God has given to you. Even when the road is tough and the challenges seem insurmountable, remember that God is holding your hand and walking with you through the ups and the downs. His presence is a constant source of strength and encouragement, and His love is a reminder that you are not alone.

When we feel overwhelmed by the tasks before us, let us turn to God in prayer, seeking His guidance and strength. Let us also remember to give thanks for the opportunities we have been given, trusting that God has a purpose for everything we encounter.

So, don’t give up! Keep pressing on, knowing that God is with you. He sees your efforts, honors your faithfulness, and promises to sustain you. As you steward the gifts and opportunities He has given you, may you find joy, purpose, and fulfillment in doing everything in His name.
