"Stewardship Attitude"
“For the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
(Mark 10:45)
If you held a mirror up to your life, would it reflect God’s love and mercy? If you are struggling with this, try changing your attitude from “I want more” to a Stewardship attitude: “Thank you, God for everything you have given me, I have enough to share”. This change in perspective will bring you joy through service to others. Pray daily to become less self-centered and to become more God-centered.
