Re:Verse passage – Psalm 24:1-10 (day two)
The earth is the Lord’s, and all it contains, the world, and those who dwell in it. v. 1
Do you remember, as a child, visiting a fancy store, or someone’s house that had really nice things, and your parents warning you not to touch, or to take great care not to break or damage anything? There may have been a fear of having to pay if something was damaged, or that we wouldn’t be able to replace the item. Regardless, we learned to treat other people’s property with great care. This is a great reminder as we begin our stewardship study. The psalmist clearly states that everything belongs to the Lord, and therefore we must manage it with great care. The Lord has given us the responsibility to steward his creation, and we must do what we can to care for things that belong to him.
