What's Really Important?

32 “Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. 33 Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. 34 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. (Luke 12:32-34 NLT)

We can get so caught up in wanting to have a good life that we neglect the great life. We can spend so much time making money, getting things so that we can enjoy our lives that we forget about what really matters. That is our relationship with God and with others.

Our stuff can be taken from us or destroyed. Possessions don't last. Jesus says we should use some of our possessions to help the poor. He also tells us that the greatest treasures are faith, love, forgiveness and the promise of eternal life with Him. What are your treasures?

    My name is Larry. Right now I am serving as the Intentional Interim or Transitional Pastor at St. Michael's Lutheran Church, Richville, MI. This blog is part of my daily personal time reading the Bible and talking with God. It is more of my personal thoughts than a deep theological discussion. Thanks for taking the time to join me in reading and thinking about what God has to say to us today.
