RESOURCEFULNESS vs. Wastefulness
- Wise use of that which others would normally overlook or discard.
"Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much." Luke 16:10
I'd like to think I'm pretty good at being resourceful, but I'm sure if I really took a closer look at my home and habits, I could probably find many more ways to improve. I think the hard part is living in a culture that for the most part is pretty wasteful, and ready to get the newest thing on the market whether the previous item is broken or not. I think that lately there has been a new movement in our culture on being "green" that has helped some people with unnecessary wastefulness. But that is just the tip of the iceberg. So many of us, myself included, are too often ready to jump at the next item that is presented to us before we think about if we are just going to throw away what we already have. I truly want to be a good steward of what the Lord has given us and not waste His blessings.
