For the earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof. — 1 Corinthians 10:26 KJV
For, “The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.” — 1 Corinthians 10:26 NIV
Reflection
We must keep in mind that everything belongs to God when we talk about giving to him or to his cause. He can work without our assistance. However, we must distribute the blessings he has given to us. What we think we “have” isn’t truly ours; it’s all his, given to us to utilize for his work and his glory by serving others.
My Prayer
I thank you, Almighty God, the universe’s creator, for your creative genius, which is manifested in the astounding variety of your creation. Please be with us as we strive to be good stewards of this great gift, your human offspring. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
