Treasures

We all value something.  In life, there are things that we are think are true treasures, things that are important and of value.

What are yours?

What are the things in your life that are important to you?

Today, in Matthew 6, Jesus is talking about where our treasures should be:

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

For which world are we living for?  Are you living for this world or the world that is to come?

Are we living for the moment or for eternity?

Are we living for briefness of this moment, or are we living for that which will last forever.

This life is not the end. This life is not sum of your existence. You were created not to just live for this moment, you were created to live for all of eternity.

What are you living for?  Where is your treasure? Are you focused on the stuff of this life?  Or the stuff of eternity?

Are you living for greatness in this world? Or in the world that is to come?

All of the things fo this world, they will fade. They will be destroyed. They will not last.

But, the things of God, the things that are eternal, they will not fade.

What are you living for today?  Where are your treasures?  May we live for what truly counts today.
