Empowered Faith: Navigating Life's Challenges

DAY 17 OF 20

I N V E S T M E N T S

In whom have you deeply invested your life? That surely includes family, friends, your sport team and possibly others. How have your feelings for those people changed as your investment in them has grown? Today’s scripture will state clearly that affection follows investment.

Luke chapter 12 and verse 34 says, “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Simple enough, your heart tends to follow what and whom you treasure.

There’s no doubt that things like long seasons and losing streaks take a toll on a team’s relationships. The promise in this verse is true even in such circumstances. Daily investments in your teammates, in the coaching staff and in those who support you will pay dividends in your hearts.

You will find that as you do the right things, your fondness for those in whom you invest will grow. That’s true of even those you could find to be most annoying or distasteful. Invest more and the annoyance will diminish. Love more deeply and the distasteful attribute will fade in its importance.

Today, make your investments on the field of competition. Give your absolute best in support of a great team victory. As you give all that you have and all that you are to your team you’ll find your heart full of a great treasure - teammates and friends.
