We Value it We Invest into it

Christa (my rocking wife) had a dentist appointment the other day to have a tooth filled. No big deal. However in the process discovered that her tooth had a crack in it and that a ROOT CANAL may be necessary. She was advised to come back if any pain occurred o Ir hot or cold.

That night she battled with pain. She was restless and sleepless and woke up with a need to go to the Dentist. I merely eluded to insurance, cost, and timing to be included into consideration. Her quick comment to me was... I don't care what it costs - I need pain relief.

We all put our physical health and well being as a premium. So the question is what if we all learned to invest ourselves the same way into our spiritual well being. Here is what I am saying. If you value it; then you invest into it. You invest time, money, energy. Sometimes that investment is sacrificial because you believe in it so much. Remember Jesus said in Matt 6 that we should "Seek first the Kingdom".

So as a new season begins what will you be investing into.. The things you value. So that really begs the question..what do you value. Set your heart on things above.
