Every today is trading day

In 2021 NBA guard Caris LeVert was traded from the Brooklyn Nets to the Indiana Pacers. 

Part of NBA protocol requires players to take a team physical before any trade can be finalized. 

After taking his physical, the results came in.  

Out indefinitely, a large mass was found on his kidney.

We don’t often like trades. 

They’re uncomfortable. 

We miss home.

Our family & friends.

The things we’re used to. 

Yet, it’s the very thing that might save our life. 

Every today is trading day. 

What will you trade?

The thing that is silently killing you? 

Are you willing to trade it for more life? 

Every today is trading day. 

What will you trade?

Tv for reading?

Social media for writing?

Work for rest?

Physical gifts for spiritual gifts? 

Immediate satisfaction for delayed gratification? 

Every today can be your birthday too.

Even on trading day. 

Now make the trade. 

P.S. As many of you probably already know, yesterday was my birthday and the truth is, I don’t need anymore gifts. However, if you’re the type of person that enjoys piling things on, signing up for The Daily Tithe (here) would really mean the world to me.
