WHERE are your treasures?” asked a gentleman of two boys. They pointed upward and said “Our treasures are up there.”
Matthew 6:20,20But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: (Matthew 6:20) 21 Says, “Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven.” “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Col. 3:2 Says, “Set your affections on things above, not on things on the earth.”
Christ is up there. Let us think more about Him, and less of the foolishness of this world. All earthly pleasures quickly pass.
The little girl’s toys—her precious treasures—will soon all be broken, new ones will take their place and they too will pass away. But the joy we find in Jesus never passes away. It goes on and on forever. We change, He changes not.
