To steward our time, it’s important that we clarify what’s important, and use methods and habits that help us to steward our time usefully.

As stewards, we understand that our time is God’s time and is to be offered to Him for His purposes.

Time is created by God, and the units of days and weeks are to be stewarded wisely for both work and rest.

Practical service is a vital way that we are to engage in serving God in His church and the world.

Words are one of God’s most powerful gifts that we need to respect and learn to use effectively.

To understand how to use gifts, it’s really helpful to remember we are the body of Christ.

Beware of becoming jealous or ambitious about gifts or service for Christ - God has given each of us enough gifts and opportunities to thoroughly occupy us!

Everyone has been given grace-gifts from God - God does not exclude us and so we must not exclude ourselves.

We can remain faithful stewards as we invest in our love for Christ and receive afresh of His love for us.

As we wait for Jesus’ return, Jesus expects us to steward the talents that He has invested in us.

God has formed us and has given us abilities that are to be invested in God’s service.

God gives each of us good gifts for our good, but also to be stewarded in His service

God is good and gives us everything that is good in our lives - this leads to praise and thankfulness.

If we desire to have God’s presence at the centre, we must do the things that put Him at the centre.

God’s presence among us is to be the distinguishing mark of a Christian and a church - let’s reflect on what this means.

God wants to ’send us up’ - together and personally, we are sent by God on His mission.

God works through people, so let’s be responsive and take action in harmony with our faith.

Are we less interested in God than in what we want Him to do for us?

God wants to teach us about and fill us with peace, love, faith and grace.

The Holy Spirit wants to work through us to encourage others
