"For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also" (Matt 6:21). Jesus warns about coveting the praise of others and desiring and depending on what the world offers. The choice is ours to where we lay our affections, here on earth or heaven above. Earthly treasures can rot, insects can destroy, thieves can steal; they will stay behind when we die. But not our heavenly valuables; God secures our faith and trust in His Son and everything we do for His glory. We choose what consumes our thoughts, which direction our hearts lean, and whether we want what the world offers or love and serve God. No one can do both.
