Life presents us with opportunities to invest. Opportunities to give our time, talent, and treasure and expect a return. The question is what type of return are we expecting? Does our return put us ahead of others, or does it help us to serve others? When we profit, do others experience a loss? And ultimately, is our profit eternal? Can we take it with us from this life into the next…is it of eternal worth in God’s kingdom? Let us face the challenge of making good investments with our lives. Making investments that can help us experience “the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus our Lord.”
