What's the Worth?

There are times we put so much effort, time, focus, and attention in what we later find out to be the wrong places. It might be hard to believe, but some people are just stuck, stubborn, and set in their ways. What's the Worth?

Really, the truth of the matter is they're not going where you're going. They are not a piece of the puzzle no matter how hard you try or they try. Fairy tales are just that...tales What's the Worth?

The days of our years are threescore years and ten; (70 years that is and tomorrow is not promised to us) and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years (80 years), yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Proverbs 90:10 What's the Worth?

Are we wasting our time in areas we are not called to? Are we doodling our life away? Have we really come to the place where we can honestly say not my will Lord, but your will done? How many people say this, but their actions say something else? This is why the psalmist penned, So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. Proverbs 90:12 We don't have the time to just let days, weeks, and years slip away. What's the Worth?

Time is valuable. Must I align myself with you? It's not what I want, it's whats best. What's the Worth? It's only what we do for Christ that will last. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him. Colossians 3:17 Again, What's the Worth?

What's the Worth? A hundredfold!!! Yes, I'll take it! Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee. And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's, But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time (IN THIS LIFE, THAT IS), houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life. Mark 10:28-30
