First Thoughts | John OrtbergSample

Gotta Give it Away to Keep It
Sometimes in life, to keep something, you have to give it away first. Sound like a riddle? It’s a simple but crazy powerful concept. We’ll talk more about what I mean in today’s video. But first, here are a few thoughts to get your mind working.
-John Ortberg
When you give joy to other people, what happens inside you?
Think about a typical day. Be honest with yourself and consider: do you spend the majority of time trying to get or trying to give?
Hebrews tells us that faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Pray about how this verse might apply to your life today.
