    What I find revealing and interesting in God’s word is that when He directs our path in life it is usually not what we think should happen. He clearly states in scripture that His ways are not our ways nor His thoughts our thoughts, yet as humans, we continually believe He thinks as we do. He knows all things and what is best for us, so trusting Him is for our benefit. The challenging part is trusting Him. We always want to do things our way.

    Lots of new insights reading these verses. One is that when we realize God owns everything and we are only stewards, that knowledge should be liberating.

    It’s revealing that faithfulness with small things is key to receiving greater responsibilities from God. I found it interesting that how we handle money reflects our true character and values. The idea that wasting resources could lead to losing stewardship responsibilities is challenging, as it reminds me to be diligent and careful in managing what I’ve been given.

    1. Revealing: God
      always provides, but His ways can surprise us. He is faithful, but we
      don’t always know how He’ll meet our needs.
    2. Interesting: The
      story of the orphans holding bread shows how trusting God’s promises gives
      us peace.
    3. Challenging:
      Accepting that everything belongs to God, not us, can be hard when the
      world tells us we own what we have.

    The notes opened my eyes to how closely money and our spiritual life are connected. I didn’t realize that Jesus talked so much about money—15% of His teachings! It’s challenging to think of every financial decision as a spiritual one. Luke 14:33, which says we need to give up all we have to follow Jesus, is especially hard because it asks us to trust God completely with everything we own.
