Staying in Mint Condition

Listen to Audio (right click to save)

Teenage boys aren't known primarily for their neatness and organization, as you probably know. When my oldest son was that creature called "a teenage boy," he had one area that defied the messy stereotype. I said just one area, right? It was his baseball card collection.

Oh, everything else may have been in a state of total chaos, but oh not the baseball cards. They were neatly put away in plastic holders, filed in notebooks, categorized. Why? Well, as he said, "Dad, they're only valuable if they're in mint condition. I want to keep these cards in mint condition."

Well, that is true. You take special steps when you have something of value. You care for something much more carefully when you realize the value of it being in mint condition.

Learn how to begin a personal, love-relationship with the God who made you.
