Good Steward

Good Steward

We all wanted a lot of money
That brings much honor and security
 It will lead us to fame and glory!
And will alleviate poverty and vanity.

Though it will give us a fleeting happiness
Money is the source of evil and timely conflicts!
It corrupts the heart and poisoned our minds,
When spent for wickedness		

Let us be a good steward of money,
Share it to the poor and needy!
Always seek for God’s majesty; 
Invest it to the bank called, eternity.

Indeed Estela, most people want this life to be a vacation, but it is a lesson, a hard one. The real riches God gives us, is letting us get to know him.
