treasures in heaven

"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and dust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, your heart will be also...No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money."- Matthew 6:19-24

I read a wonderful article that in sum was about how we so often desire other things more than Christ. The point was that it is okay to have desires for good things, as long as you remain submitted to Christ and keep him in the center of your focus, the most desirable thing in your heart. If your desires compete with and forget about Christ, then your heart is lusting for these desires alone and it is not right. This clashes with what should be our greatest desire; to know, love, and follow Jesus Christ. This should be our constant focus! :)

just something to think about...
