Treasures in Heaven

19 "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Matthew 6:19-21


Where is your heart? What do you think about the most throughout your day? Where do you spend your money? I so want my heart and my treasure to be aligned with the heart of God and I so want to live in harmony with His purpose for my life and oh how great it would be if communion with His Spirit and interaction with His people would be all that my heart longed for in this life. Sometimes it is so hard, isn’t it? It’s difficult when we let the messages of materialism and wealth and power that this world screams at us every day penetrate our soul and steal our focus away from the only One who can fulfill us and make us whole. My prayer today is that God’s Spirit would come and heal our brokenness and crush our never-ending fleshly desire to believe the enemies lies that anything in this world could ever satisfy our hunger for life and for love that only God can fill through total surrender to the power of His Spirit who lives inside of all who believe. Thank you Father for your relentless love and pursuit of our souls despite our brokenness and thank you for all that you are and everything that we can hope to be if our heart truly resides in the heavens with you. We love you more than you could ever imagine.
