A Stewardship Prayer...

(from Ann Weems)

O Lord, forgive our fears that so stifle our stewardship. 
Forgive our giving in and our giving up 
instead of giving ourselves to Christ’s mission of love. 

Remind us that our hope is in standing up and risking, 
in taking our stewardship seriously. 

Help us to remember, O Lord, 
that the stewardship question is not really, 
How much will we give? 

The stewardship question is, 
How will we spend what we have been given? 
We pray it will be faithfully and cheerfully. Amen.
