In Genesis chapter 1 we are told, " In the beginning God created the heaven and earth and everything in it." It is God’s. He created and owns it. He created Adam and Eve and put them in the garden of Eden and gave them dominion over it. He entrusted the creation to them. In the Old Testament, a steward is one who oversees and distributes the master’s possessions. Joseph is an example of a steward, overseeing his Egyptian master’s household. We are likewise called to be stewards of God’s riches. Genesis 39:3-4 “His master saw that the Lord was with him, and that the Lord caused all that he did to prosper in his hands. So Joseph found favor in his sight and attended him; he made him overseer of his house and put him in charge of all that he had.” 1 Corinthians 4:1 “Think of us this way, as servants of Christ and stewards of God's mysteries.”
