WHAT DO YOU TREASURE?

“Don’t store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal. Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.” - Matthew 6:19-21
            “Storing treasures in heaven is not limited to tithing but is accomplished by all acts of obedience to God. There is a sense in which giving out money to God’s work is like investing in heaven. But we should seek to please God’s purposes in all we do.”
            “Jesus made it clear that having the wrong treasures leads to our hearts being in the wrong place. What we treasure the most controls us, whether we admit it or not. If possessions or money become too important to us, we must reestablish control or get rid of items. Jesus calls for a decision that allows us to live contentedly with whatever we have because we have chosen eternal values over temporary, earthly treasures.”
