Lay Up Treasure in Heaven
Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal, but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Matthew 6:19-21
In a world of moths, rust, and thieves, Jesus stated the investment problem plainly: every earthly vault leaks. Then he revealed the one that does not.
The command is not to stop treasuring but to relocate the treasury. Generosity, mercy, and kingdom work are transfers to an account beyond decay. And the closing line is the diagnosis: your heart does not lead your treasure, it follows it. Move the treasure and the heart migrates after it.
Make one deliberate deposit this week that moths cannot eat: fund something eternal, relieve someone poor, give secretly. Watch where your interest and affection start traveling afterward.
