STEWARDSHIP OF RESOURCES
Thread
Stewardship implies the authority and the responsibility of people over the affairs of the
households as per the ancient belief. Gods owns everything, he is the owner of all our careers
and businesses. Therefore, one of the most important principles of biblical stewardship is that
God owns everything and he gives it to humans for their own utilization and manages it on his
behalf. As mentioned in Psalms 24:1, “The Earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world
and all who live in it (Dodd & Dyck, 2015).” Stewardship refers to all out decision making, the
way we choose to utilize our time, talent and energy. The real values of the business organization
reflect the ways in which the manager acts, uses the funds of the shareholders and treats other
employees. Stewardship implies honest leaders in the business organization and practicing good
stewardship. I believe that work should not keep away from following Jesus (Smith & Scales,
2013). Humans are given the power to reflect and mirror the stewardship of God over the sphere
of creation. Dominance given to us is not a license to exploit, destroy or consume the earth. It is
our responsibility to exercise stewardship and prevent it from falling apart (West et al, 2018). As
mentioned by Smith & Scales, (2013), stewardship requires responsible planning and managing
the resources in a responsible manner. Stewardship can be applied to nature, environment,
health, theology and other worldly things. Therefore, humans must behave ethically and work
towards the glory of God.
