Invest in your future

Invest in your future

Our nation recently celebrated another birthday. We call it the Fourth of July. The day has become a national holiday to commemorate the founding of our country.

Beyond the backyard picnics, flag waving, and fireworks displays, there is something else about this holiday that I want to bring to your attention. It's the level of investment from our founding fathers. They were fully committed because they had a vision for their future.

I'm not much of a historian, but it's not difficult to understand that these men were willing to face tremendous odds because they believed in the future of America. They were not perfect people, and our nation isn't without fault either. I'm simply making an observation that the freedoms we celebrate today were made possible by people who were willing to invest in their future.

It's been 242 years since July 4, 1776, but some things haven't changed. Dreams are still accomplished and possibilities are still fulfilled by people willing to invest in their future.

How are you investing in your future? How are you preparing for what you believe is God's plan for you? What steps are you taking to get there?
