For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Matthew 6:21
Treasure is more than just money by the way. It’s always easy to say “treasure” and think of that vault Scrooge McDuck had where he would swim in gold coins. That’s just one definition of “treasure”- money.
Merriam Webster has another and it goes like this:
Something of great worth or value; esteemed as rare or precious
In that sense, your time is a treasure. It’s rare and precious. So are your relationships. And your passion. And your talents. All those rare, precious things that have great worth and value to you- they are your treasure.
And that’s where your heart is. And it should work both ways- where your heart is, that is your treasure.
What you spend your money on. What you spend your time doing. Who you spend time with. What talents you use and what you are passionate about. These are your treasures.
Which begs the question…
Is your heart in the right place?
