Stewardship - Three Powerful Truths | Kelley Schubert

Stewarding our calling is framed by a simple mercy from God. God is sovereign, God loves, and God intends no pressure in the life of a disciple. The church often overvalues its own contribution, undervalues God’s sovereignty, and doubts the magnitude at which God can move. When Elijah hid in fear, God met him not in earthquake or fire, but in a whisper. God renamed Gideon “mighty warrior” while he cowered in a winepress. Our past failures, shame, or self-doubt often shout louder than God’s quiet assurance - but what we label as disqualifications become divine appointments when surrendered. Identity is drawn from redemption, not performance!
