I have had many friends and family, ask to borrow some of my tools, and even use my truck. At first, I was rather hesitant to lend out my tools or my truck, but the Lord convicted me of my selfishness, and reminded me, that since I am only a steward, all of those things actually belong to Him. The Lord gave me a different mindset and a new heart whenever someone asked to use them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few principles to consider when lending:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> 1. Lend the items out cheerfully. The Lord loves a cheerful giver, and it truly is better to give than to receive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> 2. Keep your own stuff in good condition. When someone asks to borrow your tools, you don&#8217;t want it to break on them. Taking care of what God has given you reveals to Him that you desire to be a faithful steward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> 3. Teach them how to use the item if they are not familiar with it. This may take a little time, but it will be greatly beneficial to them. Remember, God knows and can see your generosity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4.  If they break the item while using it, keep a tender heart towards them. There will always be another tool to purchase or another truck to buy. Keeping a good relationship with your family and friends, as well as, a genuine testimony with the Lord is of much more eternal value. \u2014 S.T. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prepared by Roger Fulk, from the \u201cBaptist Bread\u201d February 20th, 2020.
