“Or who has given the Lord anything that He may be

repaid?” Romans 11:35

St. Paul reminds us of a central fact of Stewardship. We

cannot give the Lord anything, because God already owns

it all. God made everything. All that we can do is return

a portion of God’s many gifts back to Him. Sincere

gratitude for our gifts opens our hearts to joyful generosity.

from the moment of their conception and all through

their lives.
