In this Law Homily, we explore how "Thou shalt not steal" extends far beyond taking another's property—to how we steward the resources, time, wealth, and even the lives God has entrusted to our care. From our households to our national inheritance, we are "life tenants" accountable to God for managing His gifts faithfully. Whether as children, spouses, young adults, or grandparents, each season of life calls us to invest wisely rather than waste negligently. Drawing on the parable of the talents, this message challenges us to examine our hearts and our habits, reminding us that wasteful neglect is itself a violation of God's Law—and that through Christ's atoning sacrifice, repentant sinners find forgiveness and grace.
