Stewardship
Jesus is describing God's immeasurable generosity
when He says in today’s Gospel, "Whoever asks,
receives; whoever seeks, finds; whoever knocks, is
admitted." But it should also be the description of us as
Christian stewards — those seeking to follow Christ by
using our gifts in service to others.
