NOT FOR SALE !

Have you ever sold something for a lower price than you wanted?  You desired to keep it but you had to sell it quick and cheap.  We always hear about the antique that was handed down through the family and had great value to a mother who passed it on to her daughter. A year later the daughter sells what was valuable quick and cheap as it held no value to her.

Many a person has had  their heart broken when the spouse sells their relationship, home and family for the cheap price of an affair.  Then next is a life time of  loss and pain, from the short time of a forbidden cheap moment for everyone connected. "Family for sale, cheap" !

Struggling with grades, career and family pressure to succeed the student achieves it from cheating on most tests.  We have read where students of a  university expelled for cheating. "Education, integrity, for sale. Cheap"

Churches that one day were filled with life are now museums of once useful Christians.  The times changed. Some even softened the message to get a crowd.   Most of the congregation moved out of the neighborhood and undesirables moved in. Ministry needs changed but the programs did not.  "Ministry, Churches purpose for sale. Cheap" 

God our creator gives value, shown by Christ's death on the cross and we should live a life worthy of His praise.  It's in the time of struggle and temptation, we tell the author of each "NOT FOR SALE"!
