Eternal Value
I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed.
Rev. 3:18
The believers in Laodicea belonged to a very materialistic society and like many others in the city were involved in banking, medicine and the manufacture of high quality garments and carpets. Their commitment to work meant little time for the Lord. He counsels them to invest time in things that will give a much better return. They should do business with Him. He can provide gold for the poor, raiment for the naked and eyesalve for those who have difficulty seeing the spiritual perspective. Today, open the door of your heart, invite Him in and listen to His investment advice!

Rise, touched with gratitude divine,
turn out His enemy and thine,
That soul destroying monster, sin,
and let the heavenly Stranger in.
