“Principle #2 -- Embrace Your Position”Who is the main provider for your home? According to the Bible, God is! (Phil. 4:19) He is Jehovah Jireh; you are the steward, the manager. That is great news! You worship the Creator of everything and He is willing to equip you with time, talents and treasures to manage. When you embrace your position as a steward, you are exercising faith in God as your provider. Learn more about stewardship and live a truly blessed life! “Reception Affection”“I have given to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house, my own special treasure of gold and silver” 1 Chronicles 29:3. God gives us opportunities to honor Him in many ways - often “Above & Beyond” the routine, the expected or the required. Our Church Office Reception Area needs some repair. Your donation of any size will help Debbie and her First Impressions Team show “Reception Affection”!
