Matthew 6:19-21~"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.~"
How many of *y’all know that when you bless others that you also bless yourself and your family? I don’t know about *y’all but I feel great when I am able to help someone. I mean I literally feel sick with love! God wants us to always help others by sowing love. I think he smiles at us every time we help someone. When I talk about giving I’m not just talking about material possessions. You can say a word of encouragement to someone, give someone a compliment, or even smile at them. There are many different ways to sow love –just pick one. You would be surprised at how a simple act of kindness could mean the world to someone who is hurting. Unfortunately, there are many selfish people who only focus on storing man-made treasures, which they can’t take with them. Please don’t misunderstand me; I’m not saying that we are not supposed to have anything while we are here on earth; it’s just that this should not be our primary focus. We are supposed to help others especially when we see a brother or sister in need. Think about those times when you needed something and someone reached out a hand to you. It probably made you feel good to know that someone took the time to care for you. This year let’s make a vow to keep the giving/love cycle going so that we can reap our heavenly treasures.
Can anyone out there relate?
Be Blessed *Y’all.
