Your Heart Is Where Your Treasure Is

Your Heart Is Where Your Treasure Is! I thought that I could make it on my own. Till that day when I lost my job and home. There were things in life I took for granted. Till that one day, when all was “unplanted.” There were many things that I had enjoyed. Till that one day, when it was all destroyed. I cried and wept as I see it all disappear. But something that I discovered became clear. No matter how many times I sought pleasure. Where my heart is, there is also my treasure. The treasures I thought would bring fulfillment. Never did they bring true joy and contentment! I began to pray like I had never done before… God was what I needed... I needed HIM more! The love of God spoke to me, as I knelt down... And soon, I felt HIS presence all around! I lost everything in life, that I thought I needed! But, through Jesus, my life is now completed! Jesus brought a heavenly treasure that I never knew He filled my emptiness, and made me “brand new!” He came to where I was! I was empty within... And gave me the victory to live life AGAIN! The treasure in Christ brought healing to my mind! I love him so much! He’s so gentle and kind! The treasure in Christ, is a wonderful delight. This eternal treasure… Can be yours TONIGHT!
