As we know, stewardship and tithing are hot subjects and Christians seem to love to debate them.

Most Christians could probably give an accurate definition of stewardship – but far too many don’t practice good stewardship.

The word stewardship is not in everyday conversation, but we’re all familiar with the term management. A good business manager oversees the use of a company’s resources including money, machinery and personnel in order to profitably provide a product or service and that’s also what a good steward does; A good steward oversees that everything that God has provided is being used profitably.

Stewardship can seem daunting. After all, being managers of our families, possessions, the earth and builders of a kingdom isn’t small stuff. But remember, God promises us that He’ll never require something of us that we cannot accomplish. Furthermore, whatever God may require of us, He provides the ability to achieve.

Why is the presence of God so important?

Without the presence of God, it's impossible to experience the Christian life.

Perhaps you need to hear from God. Maybe you're searching for direction and need to know God's calling and purpose in your life. Like Isaiah, you'll find your answer in God's presence. You don't have to be a super spiritual Christian to have access to God's presence. Because of Jesus' sacrifice, the veil of the temple was torn providing access to the presence of the living God.

Do you really know who you are in Christ? How do you see yourself as a Christian? Do you see yourself as powerful? Or do you see yourself as powerless? Do you understand of what it means to be a child of God? Do see yourself in rags or in riches? It is easy to be happy when everything in your life is going well but being a Christian means being happy even when things seem to be going against us.

The Bible provides many ways to help us understand that the Holy Spirit is truly a person—that is, He is a personal being, rather than an impersonal thing. First, every pronoun used in reference to the Spirit is “he” not “it.” The original Greek language of the New Testament is explicit in confirming the person of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is a person, as Scripture makes clear. As such, He is to be revered as God and serves in perfect unity with Father and Son to lead us in our spiritual lives.
