Intentionally Investing

For the first two decades of our marriage, Jim and I did youth ministry as volunteers. We spent thousands of hours with kids from various backgrounds and family structures. I worked with girls who were daughters of pastors and daughters of high-powered executives, some from broken families and some from healthy solid families. These relationships often started when these girls were 11 or 12 and continued until they graduated from high school. However, two special relationships have lasted over 35 years. These two young ladies I invested my Jesus life into are now parents of teenagers. To have lived a lifetime with them has been such a reward to me and my faith. Are you intentionally investing your Jesus life in someone today? You are surrounded by others who need you to live life alongside them.
