Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven. 

~Matthew 6:20

The first way to store treasures in heaven is by giving ourselves to Jesus Christ and the other is to live a life of love! We need God, we need to follow Jesus, to reflect and imitate Him as we go about on this Earth School journey! We need to turn from sin, live upright and holy, do good, and love like Jesus! 

The Mornings With God App today said, "The first way to store treasures in heaven is by giving ourselves to Christ. When we do, we receive an inheritance reserved for us, waiting to be given when we arrive home. Another way to store treasures in heaven is to live a life of love. If we serve those in need in Christ’s name, we will receive a reward. Every act of self-denial, every service of love, lays up treasure in heaven. If our treasure is in heaven, we need not be anxious. Jesus reminds us that God cares for the birds, and how much more will He care for us, His children. He tells us to live one day at a time, without worrying about tomorrow’s needs, for tomorrow will bring its own provision and blessing. Many people spend too much time focusing on other people’s lives. Jesus tells us we have no business judging others—we’re responsible only for ourselves. If we keep our own lives right, we will have more than enough to do."

Today so many have become such slaves for Satan, they sin and sin, make so many excuses for all the sin and hate, as if it is acceptable. Sin like hate and abortion, greed, corruption, fraud, theft, violence, the list goes on, we make a lot of excuses for sin today in our society, our own government makes all permissible and overlooks so much, we have little to no law and order today, even many laws are not enforced today like they used to be. Our society is broken, mostly due to so many without Jesus, without love. I was just telling a older lady friend who seems to harbor a lot of hate toward some elected, and I told her I had no room for hate and negativity in my life. My goal is to receive God's rewards, His treasures in Heaven, to love all, to rid myself of any hate, negativity, or misery. To focus completely on Jesus, to be grateful, loving, positive, and joyful in the Lord! We need to lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven! This is what really matters!
