Here am I, Lord; I come to do Your will.

~Psalm 40

Be a Disciple

Christian stewardship begins with the call to discipleship, and this weekend's readings offer three stories about discipleship. In the Gospel, John the Baptist points to Jesus and two of his followers immediately walk after Jesus. Jesus asks them: "What are you looking for?" It is a very good question to ask of ourselves. What is it that we are looking for in Christ Je�sus? What is it that we want by following Him? Is it that we desire most urgently to be servants, stewards, of the Lord? Or do we want something else?
