The Stewardship of Two Lives

[chuckquinley]

I think about ultimate things a lot. I think it was Spurgeon who
said, “Death destroys a man, but thoughts of death may save him.” I
think about what I am doing with my time and my energies. I evaluate
the patterns we are establishing. I look for fruit from our
activities and I judge to see where the best places are for the
investment of our lives.
In the end I am responsible for the stewardship of two lives, mine
and Sherry’s. Together we work out our systems and priorities. Our
kids are with us for a season and we are doing our best to plant the
right things inside them in hope that these things will take root and
be their stability for their lives, but we do this knowing that their
lives are their own and that they will leave us one day (too soon).
Our two lives are our project and our treasure and our stewardship.
Pray for us to make the most out of this short opportunity of life.
