dr. noel woodroffe - make us good stewards lyrics
what do we manage as stewards of god?
we manage the life that is given to us by god
we manage that life by good thoughts
by good decisions and by great choices
we manage the life that has been given to us by god
your life does not belong to you
it belongs to the master
it was given to you
and we have to manage the conduct of that life
according to the master’s will
we manage our relationships
and our family lives
by creating order, good systems and
adhering to strong biblical values
so not only do we manage the individual lives
in our own individual selves
given to us by god
in our thoughts, in our decisions
in our choices, in how we perceive ourselves
but we also manage our relationships, all relationships
and we manage our families and our family life
as good stewards
we manage our wider community interactions
that’s also very important
we are not alone
we were set in families
we were set into community
we were brought into a new civilisation
we were translated into the kingdom of god
and so we maintain and manage
our wider community interactions very consciously
and we manage that by considered faithfulness
and human activity that lines up deliberately
with the word of god
we have to manage our community interactions
to do it well, to do it consciously
as a good steward of god
we have to manage our involvement
in the wider purposes of the lord
a civilisational purpose has been given to us by god
and we manage our involvement
in the purpose of the lord given to us
by obedience, by faith, by strong partic+p+tion
and by commitment
and in exercising our stewardship
there is growth of character
through understanding and cooperating
with the will of god
in exercising our stewardship
we are learning to strongly exercise ourselves
in spiritual virtues
so important in a broken world we are in right now
learning to exercise ourselves
in spiritual virtues
and our eyes are locked
on the higher standards of the heavens
and not on the lower standards of the earth
well, father, we thank you
for talking to us
and for putting upon our hearts
your voice and your emphases
and what you want
and what you desire
help us to be good stewards
in whatever sphere of activity
managing our lives
managing relationships and family
managing our community interactions
managing our involvement
in the civilisational purposes
make us good stewards of your work
of your will, of what you want us to do
put that heart of stewardship upon us
and teach us how to sit and listen
as you come alive in these days
as you tell us what you want
as you guide us in your purposes
as you share with us what is your desire
in our individual lives
through the name of jesus
thank you, lord
thank you, lord
