Our Daily Bread

I am surrounded every day by things that don’t belong to me, yet I call them mine. For instance, I refer to the computer I am using to write this article as “my Mac.” I talk about “my office,” “my desk,” and “my phone.” But none of this equipment belongs to me. It’s mine to use, but not mine to keep. When RBC Ministries “gave” it to me, we both knew what that meant: It was on loan.
