The Bible often speaks of stewardship.  A steward is a servant whose master places him over all his properties and affairs.  The steward owns nothing, but is responsible to his master for everything.  In the Christian sense, a steward is the manager of the property and affairs of God on earth.  In His grace, God permits us to hold and to use His property for good and for His glory; but we must bear in mind not to have the attitude that it belongs to us or to use as we wish.

A Christian steward serves God out of love and gratitude, knowing that it is not how much we have, but what we do with what we have. “Moreover, it is required in stewards that a man be found faithful, proving himself worthy of trust” (1 Cor.  4:2).
