Invest Deeply

For my first blog post I wanted to start with something that has been on my heart a lot and I want to do a better job at. Many of the people around me have done a very good job at it, even if it hasn't been at the forefront of their mind. Its two words, but for the last fews months they have been very profound. Here it is:

Invest Deeply

We have heard the phrase, "you will get out it whatever you put into." The reality of it though has been rocking my life. Am I living with the intentionality on putting something significant into everything we do, especially relationships.

Invest Deeply with God

Invest Deeply with Family

Invest Deeply with Friends

Invest Deeply in Learning

Invest Deeply in you Dreams

I look at the people I admire in their walk with God and used to wonder what is missing in my walk that they have. Are they better at not sinning? No. Were they blessed with a gift to walk with Him that I wasn't? No. Are they more spiritual and less practical? No. It was the simple fact that they invested deeply into in the God that stole their hearts. It wasn't sheer discipline either. Mike Bickle once said that "Lovers outwork workers everytime."

Friends, in everything, Invest Deeply. The Bible says it this way, "What ever you do, work at it with all you heart..." Col 3:23
