A Steward
"A steward is someone who manages another person's wealth. As stated in 1 Corinthians 4:1-2, the most important quality of a steward is that he be faithful: "Men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the... things of God. Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful." The term "those entrusted" means house managers or stewards. Therefore, the challenge of a manager is to be creative, thoughtful, and sensitive to available opportunities that will benefit his master."
As I was reading this explanation of a "steward" from the Community Bible Study workbook (Luke 16)... it made me think of the fact that not only has God entrusted me with many things and expects me to be a good steward... but the fact that my HUSBAND is daily entrusting me with our children, our home, our possessions and how we spend the money that he is working hard to earn.
I took the last sentence of the passage above and changed it to: "The challenge of a wife is to be creative, thoughtful, and sensitive to available opportunities that will benefit her husband and her family." It's important to keep this in the forefront of our minds and evaluate our spending to see how it is affecting and/or benefiting our husband and our family.
