WHERE IS OUR TREASURE?

Matthew 6:21 "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." NIV "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." KJV Jesus tells us not to put our desires and confidence in material possessions and money. They will never satisfy us, nor make us secure. If we do, we will only want more and more, and none of the things will last. The lure and false brilliance of earthly treasure will dim the light of God in our lives. Our hearts stay where our treasure is and our souls follow our hearts. Only in the Kingdom of God where He is Master, Creator, Lord of all, will our treasures last forever. To put our treasures there, we exchange our earthly treasure and desires from our hearts into His hands. He will use them for His glory and we will have treasures in Heaven for eternity. Heavenly Father, please show us where we have allowed earthly treasures and desires to take our hearts away from You and Your kingdom. Help us to get our priorities where they need to be so that our treasures will be kept safe in Your kingdom. Remind us by the Holy Spirit to get our eyes off earthly things that will only last a short while leaving us empty. We ask in Jesus' name, Amen.             ©2011 Daily Grace Bobbi Craigmyle, Psy.D., BCPCC drbobbijo@yahoo.com http://insidetheshrink-dailygrace.blogspot.com/ No Copyright Infringement Intended Personal Use Only
