More Than Money: Stewardship in Scripture | 1 Corinthians 3:7

 

1 Corinthians 3:7
“So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.”

Isn’t that the truth! It’s not just true about preachers like Paul; it’s true about all of us in the Christian life. God can do such wonderful things with our feeble efforts. This is so very true of our gifts to the Lord’s work in the church. From His generous giving to us, we learn to give generously. Then the Lord blesses this response to His grace in turn, and He uses our very giving to continue to bless us in the church where we hear of His gracious generosity to us. The cycle repeats, and the Lord gives growth!
