It takes a lot of effort to acquire the things we need—and plenty more to keep them up and running. Paint fades. Metal rusts. Hoses blow. Motors wear. Something that seemed brand-new yesterday eventually needs fixing or replacing.
Earthly treasures are only temporary. When we build our sense of security or success around what we own, we’re depending on things we can lose.
Jesus' words invite us to consider where we’re investing our hearts. Are we giving our best to accumulating more while leaving little time for God, our families, or someone who needs us?
We can care responsibly for what we have and hold it with open hands. We can share, give generously, and make time for people. Those choices help us put possessions in their proper place.
Today, let’s think about what we treasure—and whether the way we spend our time reflects it.
Lord, help us be grateful for Your provision, generous with what we have, and mindful of what has eternal value. Keep our hearts anchored in You. Amen.
Thanks, Gig 'em, and God bless!
