Embracing Our Stewardship: Reflections on Colossians 1:24-29
Sunday Sermon Recap
Dear Church Family,
We hope this email finds you well!
Summary:
This past Sunday, our sermon explored our calling as stewards of God's grace, based on Colossians 1:24-29. There we highlighted the fact that we are all entrusted with various aspects of our lives to manage faithfully according to God's will. This stewardship involves suffering as we follow Christ's example, but also comes with the promise of God's power working within us. We were challenged to examine how we're stewarding the different areas of our lives and to depend more fully on God's strength to fulfill our calling.
Takeaways:
- We are all called to be stewards: Every aspect of our lives - our relationships, resources, time, and talents - is a field entrusted to us by God to manage according to His will.
- Stewardship involves suffering: Following Christ's example means dying to ourselves and our desires, which can be difficult but ultimately leads to true joy and freedom.
- God's power enables our stewardship: We don't steward in our own strength, but through the energy and power that God provides through His Spirit within us.
As we go through this week, let's prayerfully consider how we can be more faithful stewards in every area of our lives. Remember, God has given us everything we need to fulfill this calling, we just need to depend on Him.
May God bless you and empower you in your stewardship this week.
In Christ's love,
