Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. Matthew 6:20 New International Version
Every time you as a Christian do an act of kindness to someone that places a beautiful jewel in the crown that Christ will present you with on entering Heaven.
Do not do acts of kindness just to get the crown, for then the act is meaningless.
It is only valuable to Jesus when you do your kindness out of love.
Then you get the valuable jewel in your crown to be given to you upon your entrance into heaven by our generous King.
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Chanan (God is gracious) for all the numerous opportunities to do good deeds. I do them to give glory and praise to You for all You have abundantly blessed me with. I thank you that these acts of grace are jewels added to the crown You are preparing for me when we meet in heaven. I thank you in the name of he who wears the most beautiful and royal crown of all Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions. Matthew 19:21-22 New King James Version
“The love of worldly possessions is a sort of birdlime (trap), which entangles the soul and prevents it flying to God.” Augustine
In most of the world today most people are slaves.
They foolishly fall for the trap of materialistic pleasures such as a new house (which in my opinion is nothing more than a money pit). Then they are slaves to a mortage and constant upkeep costs. Indeed how many houses are overpriced because of rich immigrants coming in and buying everything up and we cannot afford a house anyway.
They are shallow enough to purchase products that promise they will be physically beautiful while neglecting their spiritual beauty. If have met many that their physical appearances are ugly yet they are the most beautiful souls I have had the privilege to meet. They go out and buy products that run up their credit cards and clothing that is overpriced and they go in debt. Meanwhile those outfits they “Had to have” are sitting in their closets collecting dust. They are slaves to fashion.
I think it is shameful when someone owns a house and they have to rent to storage place because they have too much stuff.
They think buying a certain car will make them happy and cool. I always laugh and ask them if that means they are dorks when they are not in their cars.
It is an empty happiness those whose happiness is found in worldly pleasures. Joseph- Anthony: Green
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah El Shaddai ( God who is sufficient for the needs of His people) for all the amazing blessings You abundantly shower upon this child of Yours every day. I exalt You in the name of He who always provides for His cherished sheep Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day
