Stewardship: The Path to discipleship. To be a friend of Jesus calls us to Discipleship “come out of ourselves.” However, this is not a burden imposed upon us. To be a Christian is far By the Most Reverend Thomas Wenski, from being a burden, it is a gift — and, to follow Archbishop of Miami, excerpted from his 2019 Christ, offering him in return our own gifts of time, pastoral letter “Stewardship and the Theology of talent and treasure, brings us joy, a joy that gives the Gift.” meaning and direction to our lives.

—ICSC June 2021 e-Bulletin I wish to share with you some reflections on stewardship. A proper understanding of our role as “stewards of God’s varied grace” can help us truly be “missionary disciples.”

Made in His own image and likeness, God made us for Himself and in his plan; he has made us stewards of his creation that we might respond to his love in kind so that, cooperating with him, we use our gifts for his greater honor and glory.

Stewardship — placing our time, talent and treasure at his disposal — is then the path of discipleship by which we grow in our friendship with God, and with one another, becoming in Christ, through the gift of the Holy Spirit, the persons that God meant for us to be.

Of course, in inviting us to “come, follow him,” Jesus calls us to walk the “narrow path.” As we make our life’s pilgrimage through this “vale of tears,” this path will take us by the Way of the Cross, the way of Jesus who sacrificed himself for us and for our salvation. In fact, the Bishops at the A Stewardship Moment Second Vatican Council insisted that as human beings we can only fully realize ourselves through Twelfth Sunday in Ordinary Time the sincere gift of ourselves in imitation of Christ. In today’s Gospel we listen to Jesus’ disciples cry- Seen in this way, stewardship is not just a ing out in fear of a great storm. Their cry echoes “program” to increase the Sunday offertory. It is the cries of people around the world during the really something much more demanding. More pandemic. It is the ultimate cry of fear, doubt and than a “fundraising” gimmick, stewardship rightly abandonment. It is a parable of the situation of all understood is a way of life. So, it is something of us when cast adrift in the storms of our lives, much more difficult than just writing a check. Be- seemingly without God’s presence and care. But coming a disciple of Jesus Christ, given our fallen God is with us. Jesus does calm the storm for his human nature, goes against the grain of our pro- disciples.
