"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and decay destroy, and thieves break in and steal. But store up treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor decay destroys, nor thieves break in and steal." Matthew 6:19-20
Where your treasure is, there your heart will be. We spend our time building up earthly treasures only to see it consumed by disaster. All that stuff can be replaced, the treasure we should be storing up is Jesus Christ. It is in neighbor helping neighbor, stranger helping stranger, it is in giving of ourselves to help those that God has placed upon our path of life. In today's readings God tells us "Therefore, stay awake, for you know neither the day nor the hour." Matthew 25:13. What will the Bridegroom find you doing, where will your treasure be.
This morning's bible verse was given to me by a friend who's bible was opened up to this scripture. All his possessions were loaded up in a dumpster yesterday and taken to the landfill. God is real and He does speak to each of us, listen to Him. In the tragedy there is always Hope.
Dear Heavenly Father, my heart goes out to all those impacted by this storm. May they find peace in these events of life. Thank You for showing us how to help each other, Thank You for the tremendous response of people helping each other. Point the way Lord, let me hear and see, move me to respond as You would. You are my treasure and I need more of You. Bless this day with Joy. In the Great name of Jesus I pray, Amen.
Mary, Queen of Heaven, pray for us.
