STEWARDSHIP THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK

                                                     GENEROSITY

The grace that leads to gratitude moves us to respond.  We look around and see an ocean of need, a world desperate for meaning and transformation.  Hunger, homelessness, disease, hatred and isolation infect God's creation.  Ignorance of God's ways limits human possibility.

Generosity is response to both the need we see and the One who gives us all good gifts.  We set before God our time, talent and treasure as lavishly as we can in response.  We find where God is working and we invest ourselves there--generously.

Grace. Gratitude. Generosity.  It is as simple--and joyful--as that.  What will you do?
