Where Your Treasure Is

Back to home / View comments

For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Luke 12:34

What you value most is your TREASURE. Where you spend your time and your money is your treasure. Whatever dominates your conversation is what you treasure. What others know you for is a good indication of what your treasure is.

Most Christians are quick to claim that God is their first priority. Yet often their actions reveal that their treasure is not God but things of this world. Some Christians find it difficult to discuss their relationship with God, but they can chatter easily about their family, friends, or hobbies. Some find it difficult to give an offering to God but readily spend lavishly on recreation. Some boldly approach strangers to sell a product, yet they are painfully timid in telling others about their Savior. Some give hundreds of hours to serve in volunteer organizations but feel they have no time available to serve God.

If you are unsure of where your treasure is, examine where you spend your available time and money. Reflect on what it is to you most enjoy thinking about and discussing. Ask your friends to tell you what they think is most important to you. Ask your children to list the things most valuable to you. It may surprise you to know what others consider to be your TREASURE…

    I’ve been searching for that Bible verse! I heard in Church and I mixed up the chapter and verse number in my head :| well. Just my opinion lang, maybe people serve God through organizations. Some are trying to be role models so that people would do the same also. Like Jesus Christ, they live a life of service to others diba :)
