TO VALUABLE TO USE.

In the motorcycle world I noticed something.

The more the motorcycle cost - the less it is rode.

Take an expensive custom bike.

Pay $50,000.00 to $100,000.00 for the motorcycle

and you will not see it on the road.  There is too much

chance it might get scratched, or heaven forbid, get

some dust or dirt on it.

Take the junk motorcycle below.

The owner will ride it everywhere and just have

a blast riding it.

If it gets a scratch or a dent.  Well, it just got

more character.

The expensive motorcycle.
The only time you will see it on the road is on a trailer
on the way to a motorcycle show.

Am I saying, "Get a cheap motorcycle."  NO.
I am saying we have missed placed values.

A short time back I saw a "baseball card" up for auction.
The current bid at that time was $21,500.00.  If you could
get it at one tenth of that price, what on earth good is it to
anyone?  Well, except to care for and protect it.

Or,
a shelf full of inexpensive "nick nacks".  What is their
value?  Just something to dust and keep from breaking.

A mess of "stuff" is not life.

God said,
"Beware, and be on your guard against every form
of greed; for not even when one has a abundance
does his life consist of his possessions."
(Luke 12:15 NASB)
