Blurred Vision

I read the other day:

"A man from Colorado moved to Texas and built a house with a large window in front from where he could see hundreds of miles of range land.  "The only problem is, there's nothing to see."

About the same time, a man from Texas moved to Colorado and built a house with a large window overlooking the Rockies.  "The only problem is I can't see anything, the mountains are in the way."

People have a way of missing what's right in front of them.  They go to a city and see lights and glitter, but miss the lost, lonely people. We hear a persons; bitter or critical comments, and we miss the cry for love and friendship."

Good Ethics?

The latest thing to making a comeback has been good ethics and values.  With that said, somehow it has tiptoed into all the crazy beliefs and anything goes of  relative truth,  blurred view of right and wrong and neo traditions and paradigms..
It's correct for them to do such and such, but your sin (whoever you may be.),  is played on every T.V. Channel in our nation.
 And They call the church hypocritical .  It's nothing new, the individuals trying to live a good moral life commits a sin, and everyone points their finger .
I have bad news: it doesn't matter who does wrong, it is wrong (duh). "Well who made you judge?" The same one that judged and gave Tim Tebow Hell for praying and glory, to Miley for bumping and grinding on everything on stage for your Disney kids to see.. The new ethics and morality.

 There is a spiritual battle going on inside a believer. It is difficult for everyone in one area or another. Good people, bad people... What matters is Peace with God through faith in Christ. Then living dead to this world and much alive to God!.

Good Ol' Bible says: "Woe to you that call evil good and good evil."

Investing

Investing can be risky. It most often involves a cost yet followed by a return.  I'm not speaking about the stock market. It might include everything besides the markets.

We invest our time, which is valuable . We invest our energy, love, property,  loyalty and trust. I think you get the picture.

We invest in a person, one on one. Teachers can invest in one as they invest their time and knowledge into an entire class.

Careers and position , blogging,  tweeting, calling a lonely person with your cell phone to tell them you love and  care for them.  You may write a book investing in a topic or worldview. You spent that time and energy, making an investment to; instruct, entertain or cause a revolution.

The return on any investment can be minimal to rich eternal results and rewards for you. Investing might accrue in value. We are also to add value investing in lives that might feel hopeless and unimportant or

unlovable. Plant a seed and watch it grow!

We make investment as we live for others bringing God the glory. Jesus Himself said:  "Do not store up for yourselves treasure on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.  But store up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where moth or rust do not destroy and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. "

Let us again go, and invest into the lives adding value to men, women, boys and girls.  Share the good news of Jesus Christ. We just might have the reward of meeting  somewhere in eternity.

Launch Out.

When the boat leaves the dock it is launched out to do what it was meant to do.
A rocket is launched into the sky.
If we are to create a business, or go into all the world and make disciples, we'll have to leave the;  dock, launch pad or Church building.
You might have scores of people coming to you.
Then, you will have to launch your; self, ministry service, day, strength, time,  making the most of every opportunity and as Jesus said to do, launch out into the deep.
