Moreover it is required in stewards that one be found faithful. 1Cor. 4:2 (NKJV)
All of us have flaws.
Some talk too much, others are timid, yet others are always late. It’s human to have flaws. Those can be worked on and they are not fatal. But character is something you and I must have.
The way the Father sees us on the earth is not only as his children but also as stewards of what he has entrusted us with - gifts, talents & calling.
A steward has to treat what has been entrusted to him as his own, but never to become obsessive about it - he needs to remembers it belongs to someone else. As a steward you cannot afford not to be faithful. You can have flaws, but you cannot be unfaithful.
Suppose you have the gift of comfort. So many people need comfort in this life. As soon as you become aware your presence comforts people and ministers to them, will you be faithful to bless others through it? In other words, will you keep on keeping on?
It’s been 20 years now in my walk with God and I’ve seen one thing - there are a lot and I mean A LOT of people who come to Christ but never develop as consistent disciples. They may have gifts and talents, but they can’t be trusted.
Faithfulness is a non-negotiable. This means you will keep releasing to others what God has given you as long as you are alive! You must finish the course!
