I attended a seninar the other day and was asked by the instructor to write my name on a piece of paper. Then she told me to change hands and make my signiture idenical with the oposite hand I write with all the time. (No one in the class was able to do thi by the way.) Then she made a wonderful point. She said “How hard would you work to master this task if I told you I’d give you a million dollars if you could do this?” Everyone saw her point. We work on things that we value and desire? What skills do you need to develop in your ministry. What changes do you need to make in yourself to be more effective. You might say “give me $1,000,000.00 and I’ll change it.” Being obedient to Christ, doing whatever we do unto him, and serving children and families are things that you can’t put a price on because they are priceless. So, what do you need to work on?

Great reminder Brother Jim. The first thing I thought about was how I need to exercise more. For a few weeks I have been thinking that I should jog in the mornings. I should take better care of the temple, so to speak. But life is busy and the excuses are so many. I wonder if I would get up and jog every morning for a year if someone offered me a million bucks? Okay, now the Lord is convicting me! I better head to the store and buy some new running shoes!
