Where Is Your Treasure?

"Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal; But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal; For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Matthew 6:19-21

Our problem is that we place value on the temporary things of this world and do not value the things which have eternal implications.

What we value says a lot about our beliefs and motives. How we treat others says a lot about more about us than we realize.

We spend a lot of time planning for and worrying about things which, in the final scheme of things, really is not important or worthwhile.

"For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" Mark 8:36

What do you treasure?
