Growing up in Texas, I used to hear stories of treasure hidden in the hills by outlaws, pirates’ treasure chests, and lost mines filled with jewels and precious metals. Treasure! I have never found any of these, but I am glad to know of a more precious and lasting type of treasure…treasure in heaven. Jesus said, “lay up for yourselves treasure in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal,” Matthew 6:20. What is treasure in heaven? It is our investment in God’s causes and God’s people. We invest in God’s causes when we feed the hungry, encourage the fainthearted, help those in need. Find an opportunity every day to lay up treasure in heaven by showing God’s love to others. Have a blessed week! Diane Cooke, Pastor of the Presbyterian churches in Willow Springs and Mtn. View.
