Treasure In Heaven

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



Bee's Thoughts:

Politics are found in most working places, even in churches and Christian organizations. Sometimes I find my works become meaningless when I have to battle all these.

Tonight's devotion reminds us to lay our treasures in heaven and not on earth. Fame can't be brought along with us to heaven no matter how glorious it is. What types of treasure will we see in heaven?

"8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away... 13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." (1 Corinthians 13)

Everything will pass away except "faith, hope and love". That means we should cultivate these 3 things now so that when we are in heaven, our treasures go with us.

Dear Lord,
Teach me to grow daily in "faith, hope and love". Help me to set my heart on the right treasure that will last for eternity.
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
