The Bible teaches that what we have belongs to the Lord and that it is entrusted to us for our stewardship.
Imagine leaving money to care for your children with a relative while you were away on a trip. How would you feel if your relative put the whole wad on Powerball Lotto tickets? The flippant person will say, “Great if he won!” But the reality is gambling empires are built on people losing, not winning.
To put at risk of loss our Father’s money on games of chance is poor stewardship.
