How do you invest your money, your resources and yourself?
In this climate of fiscal worries, the national debt and taxes, people are worried about their finances, retirement income, investments, 401K's, IRA's, etc.
But I have a bigger question: What does your eternal retirement account look like?
I mean, if you are a Believer and Follower of Jesus Christ, then you have a responsibility to invest what God gives to you. You are not to squander your gifts from God: money, health, life, etc. You are to wisely invest those things in the Kingdom of God for the best return on your investment.
For instance, money. God gives you everything you need to do His will so that you have enough to share. Money is not evil, however, the LOVE of money is a sin. It leads to greed, idolatry and even death.
Your life/health is a precious gift for investing in Kingdom things. You have been given just so many years and so much ability to use to further God's agenda in your life and the Kingdom. Don't waste it in drugs, alcohol, poor health habits, exhausting work schedules and things like worry, anxiety, fear, anger, unforgiveness, hatred, and laziness. These things will rob you of the joy, hope, love and rewards of Kingdom living and working in Father's Business!
This world will pass away, but the Kingdom of Heaven is eternal. You are a child of God and your job is to do what He has given you to do. He has great plans. They might not always look like much to you, but they are working God's will to be done and you will reap the rewards of obedience, and a life well lived.
Your wise investments of your resources will bring you a brilliant reward in the future when we live, retired from this world, in Father's House & Kingdom.
Remember, He is coming back.
Maranatha, y'all.

Thank you for this encouraging message!
I think anxiety is a big problem these days, so our investment in prayer, in His Word, and spending time in His presence is not only wise, a blessing beyond measure, and also so healthful in every way??
Dear God help me use all the resources you given to me well Help to use them to bring glory to you
