Self-investment

Investing in yourself is not a cliché. It is a foundational principle for anyone who desires to live a fulfilling life. There are a number of ways that you can make that investment. You can invest time in developing skills that help you provide for your physical needs. You can invest time in exercise and things that increase your health. You can invest time in acquiring knowledge or invest time in acquiring things.


There is a lot that you can invest your time in, but you have a limited amount of time to invest. So how do you maximize your investment? Christ suggests that you start by investing time in your spiritual well-being and if you do that, everything else will fall into place. (See Matthew 6:33)

He was not able to trigger the arrhythmia and aborted the procedure. The second was by a different cardiac electrophysiologist who felt very confident in the success of his procedure. Inste...

Not everyone has the ability to appreciate things in the way they deserve. “Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.” - Matthew‬ ‭7:6‬ ‭NASB‬‬
