If It Has a Price Tag…It Won’t Last.

Something so commonly used, something so commonly overlooked. “Worldly stuff doesn’t matter.” or, “you can’t take it with you when you die!”
I feel like those have become something everyone is just like yeah yeah.
No. It’s so true. We overlook the little things, as believers of the Word. Why are you obsessing over certain labels? They’ll fade eventually. Why are you obsessing over looking a certain way? Looks fade as well.
Why AREN’T we looking to God? He never fades away. His love never fails, never gives up, never runs out on you (One Thing Remains by Jesus Culture). Why is that SO hard for us to grasp? Because it’s easier just to blow it off? Or it’s easier to walk along and pretend it’s nothing? But it’s something so big. My heart is to help. Help people get the big picture. But, it’s not an easy task that’s for sure. But I can’t quit. For example, say Lance Armstrong is in the middle of one of his big races and all of a sudden, he’s tired of this. What if he doesn’t finish first? What if, what if. Say, he turns around, and just goes back. What did he accomplish? Nothing. He would’ve turned his back on something he loved, because he let himself get in the way of a bigger goal.
So don’t let life’s price tags keep you away from your goal.
It’s not easy. Just worth it.
Try, one prayer at a time.
