Basically: don’t invest all your time and energy (and money) in things that get old and rust and go out of style and can be snatched from the back of your car if you park too far from the streetlamp. Instead: put your life into things that matter, like your relationship with God and life in his kingdom. Because where you put your resources is where you put your heart. It’s the steering wheel to your engine of desire.
Investment
Rick Warren
If you want to invest your life in something that’s going to last, invest it in the Word of God and in people. Get the Word into your mind and heart, and get people into God’s family.
