How to be a good steward?
What has God given you? And what are you doing with it? For example, God gives us breath and health to wake up every day. How do you use that time?

Are you caring for the needs of those in your care? Are you being efficient--doing as much good as is reasonable? Or are you eating out 6 days per week and not really paying attention to where your money goes or what happens to it? More on reddit.com
