Stewardship Reflections 30th Sunday in Ordinary Time “You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.” – Matthew 22:37 Do you put other “gods” before God? Is your love of money, power, status, comfort or some personal possession greater than your love for God? Do you recognize that everything you have and that everything you are is a gift from God? Putting God first in everything helps keep us from becoming a slave to our possessions and to our pride.
