    Think 

    Do you know the biggest challenge trust fund babies face? To wisely manage the great wealth their parents entrusted them with at a young age.  

     

    The author of today's scripture, the Apostle Paul was, in a sense, a trust fund baby. God showed Paul how to have a relationship with Christ and then He showed him how to manage his wealth well by faithfully sharing it with others.  

     

    You, too, are a trust fund baby! Like Paul, God has entrusted you with insane wealth. If you are a Christ-follower, you have been given everything you need to live life to the full. How is that? God gave you the Holy Spirit as a helper and a guide to help you get the most out of life. What are you doing with that wealth? Are you even aware of what you have in Christ? I'll say it again: the biggest challenge trust fund babies face is the responsibility to wisely manage what he or she has been given. As Christ's trust fund baby, you have been a given a great trust. It is time for you to discover all that trust entails and how to walk in its wealth.
