Matthew 6:19-24
“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
22 “The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light. 23 But if your eyes are unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
24 “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
Life gets complex for most of us. We work to have security. We have things we do want to own. We want good health. We want to live in the Light of God's pleasure and favor. We have savings accounts, credit and checking accounts. We want to please God Today.
Jesus irons this out for us. Love God. Love Yourself. Love Your neighbor. Love those who give us mercy. Forgive those who do not. Go back to pleasing God.
God is One. Father, Son, Holy Spirit - the Holy Trinity. God is One - using the Gospel of Love is a clarifier. And knowing your Direction to the God Who is Good, is a good thing. Worthy. In Jesus this is obtainable and we approach the Throne of God with Confidence Jesus gives us. We can rest in being God's.
Father God, for what is confusing - Jesus. For what is too large - Jesus. For what is in need - Jesus. For what is in joy - Jesus. For what needs Love - Jesus. For rejoicing - Jesus. We rest in You, for ourselves and our loved ones. Amen.
