Brand Loyalty....

How many of us remember shopping with our Mom?  

Whether it was at the grocery store or buying shoes, 

you know there were some dos and don'ts involved!

Careful consideration was given to purchases - 

loyalties were formed!

Certain milk was better than others 

and deemed the "only" milk for our home...

(and if you know my family - 

you know I'm talking "Borden WHOLE Milk" people!)

Some shoes were only to be purchased 

at a certain department store 

and after all - if my momma's feet were to be 

standing in those shoes all day - they better be comfy!

Now I share these things not to sound elitist 

or have a "better-than-you" posture, but to share 

how choosy we can all be about our personal preferences 

and perhaps invite you to embrace and teach a 

new "Brand Loyalty" to those you love...

What if over the next few months, you were diligent 

to choose to teach your loved ones the "Brand Loyalty"

of choosing God - knowing God - - - 

I mean really KNOWING Him!  

Not just knowing of Him... I'm suggesting

learning more about Him by studying scripture, 

loving God with your whole heart and soul, 

serving Him where HE invites you to share

His care and concern for others 

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY - - -

CHOOSING HIM among all 

the distractions and chaos

the world throws our way each day.

I believe that God is calling every one of His children

to share more than ever His plan for eternal life 

with everyone we meet....

Teach scripture that will 

remind your children: 

where the real priorities lie,

allow them to stand tall in times of trial,

help them in times of despair,

celebrate in times of joy 

and worship the One 

whose love is SO Great

that He gave His Only Son. 

Teach your loved ones 

that only in THE ONE

is their hope found.

Can you think of anything better than creating

a new "Brand Loyalty" with the Savior?

I certainly can't!
