Scriptural Reflections on StewardshipScriptural Reflections on StewardshipScriptural Reflections on StewardshipScriptural Reflections on Stewardship

Moses and Jesus both attest to the fact that the work of the Spirit cannot be confined by an in-

stitution, and that no one can claim a monopoly of the Spirit’s charism, or wisdom. Beware of growing rich

while neglecting the rights and needs of others.
