"It is better for me to die in
behalf of Jesus Christ, than to reign over all the ends of the earth.” ~
Ignatius of Antioch
Most realize that we can’t take
anything we accumulate in this life with us to the next, but do our actions
reflect our values? Too often we seek approval from people who, five
years from now, won’t matter. Parents must put down the computer and pick
up their child. Employees must spend less time on their company 401-K and
more time on their knees with Christ.
"Don't look for shortcuts to
God. The market is flooded with surefire, easygoing formulas for a successful
life that can be practiced in your spare time. Don't fall for that stuff, even
though crowds of people do. The way to life - to God! - is vigorous
and requires total attention” (Matt.
7:13-14, MSG).
