Jesus demonstrated and encouraged good stewardship when he said “Let nothing be wasted.” He had just fed a large multitude with a few fishes and loaves of bread, yet in the abundance of miraculous leftovers, he made sure his disciples took good care of the extra food.

How wasteful we are. Yes!  The Lord wants us to take good care of and use everything he has miraculously provided. If you take good care of what he entrusts to you, He will give you more.

DAILY PRAYER: Lord, forgive us for being so wasteful. Develop within us good stewardship over all your provision today.
