I spent the last two days helping to strategically invest tens of thousands of dollars in different ministry endeavors. Through some God-ordained circumstances I have the privilege of serving as one trustee of a trust fund. It always reminds me of some very simple but life-changing truths:
1) I don't own anything. It all belongs to God. I'm just a trustee of everything God has entrusted to me. All of life comes back to the issue of stewardship--doing the best I can with what I have where I am. And doing it to glorify God.
2) Everybody likes making money but the greatest joy is giving it away! I think it was John Wesley who said we should make all we can, save all we can, and give all we can. The key is motivation. If we make it to give it God will bless it.
