My nation, the U.S., defines investment as a monetary infusion into a sector. In my marriage, quality time is a prized investment. My houseplant - which recently met its demise - required water, light, plant food, and encouraging words.
Likewise, my investments into my relationship with God take on many forms. During the world's current tumult, I sense Him asking for an investment of active listening.
The Lord's always sharing something with us. In response, we interpret based on our past experience or knowledge. And today, he wants to share something fresh. When we are experiencing something new - a hardship or joy -, or perceiving something "strange", we have permission to ask why. We can seek out God's motivations to deepen both our understanding of and relationship with Him.
