Daily Wisdom

“…we all had our conversation in times past in the lust of the flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us; Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ; And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.” Eph 2:3-6

We’ve all been guilty of squandering time in our past, ill-advised investment and expenditures that only brought forth lustful gain.  Unfortunately we cannot return it for a refund and try again, but we can, by God’s grace make new investments.  Consider that you have won the following prize: each morning the bank would deposit $86,400 in your private account for your use. However, this prize has stipulations as follows. 1.) Everything you don’t spend that day would be taken from you. 2.) You may not transfer any monies into another account. 3.) You can only spend it. 4.) Each morning your account receives another deposit for $86,400 for that day. 5.) The bank can end the contest without warning; at any time close your account.  What would you do? How would you go about spending or utilizing $86,400 each day and on what?  Actually this game is real! Each of us have won such a prize, we can’t seem to see it.  The prize is time…1.Each morning you receive 86,400 seconds as a gift from God. 2.) And no remaining time is credited or accrued towards the next day. 3.) What is not used is gone forever. 4.) But, each morning God gives you another 86,400 seconds to use again. 5.) Your account can be dissolved and the game can end without warning. By God’s mercy we get to reinvest daily, He’s quickened us by way of His great love; invest in that which goes towards heavenly places, it will bring forth eternal in gains!
 
If your investments are in the world, you are the world’s worst investor.
