Trading the Amazing - Part 1

Have you ever made a good trade on the playground? A snicker’s candy bar for an apple? A piece of cake for a carrot? It feels great to “trade up” from what you have. It feels good to make good business deals. The flip side of that is what many of us do…we purchased a big-ticket item and found it cheaper the next week. We purchased a car that is a lemon. But the ultimate bad deal is when we trade The Amazing for the ordinary. The consequences are dire and come from the very things we choose. Let’s cling to Jesus today! There is no way to “trade up” from Him!
