But Store Up Treasures In Heaven,

Where your treasure is, your heart will be also. All
that we are on this earth is what the Lord has given
us. So we don't live in excesses but just what we
need. That is opposite of living in the flesh where it
is a world of taking all we can grab. We pour all we
have into loving Jesus which we so joyfully receive
through prayer and thanksgiving. Christ should not
be far away from our hearts but rather where He is
near to us. Yes we ask for things through petition
and trust He will provide as He promised. Also we
should just put ourselves in His presence daily and
know He is with us. In scripture elsewhere it says:
speak Lord I'm listening and we let His words come
deep in us. In this way we will always be near to His
heart and near to His ways rather than our own.

It seems you always post on something I am or haver recently been meditating upon. Of course I agree with you, especially when you say exactly what I confess in prayer. I came into the world with nothng and there isnothing I will take out of this world, and may I say, nothing I want to except the gifts from the Fatheer, faith, hope and love.

Thank you DR always for your prayerful and well meditated posts. You certainly seem to possess a lot of the gift of love...Pray I be more this way also..God bless you always..j

Wanting to move to Tennessee I am trying to go through treasures that have been collected over the 16 years living in this townhome. So right now I'm looking to get rid of some treasures.

Time for another yard sale or calling Goodwill to schedule a pickup.
