Morning Manna by Rufus Parker - 2016 July 18

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
(Matthew 6:19-21)

Today’s Morsel: I’ve noticed that a lot of people no longer see the importance and value of church.  Many seem to see church as a nice to do thing, but not something that they really need to go do if they feel something else is more important. What I find is that those who say such things have not invested in the Kingdom of God. They have no treasure in the house of God. They don’t tithe, so church isn’t important to them. They don’t teach, so church isn’t important to them. They aren’t involved in helping the church grow, so it’s not important to them. Jesus said where your treasure is that is where your heart will be also. How much do you have invested in your church?

Sing: Aren’t you get just a bit tired of fooling around? You try to laugh your way through life but you’re not gaining ground; why not try the Lord today, just asking him in your heart to stay, and you’ll find Jesus’ love to be the be the greatest thing you’ve even found.

Thought For Today: Where your treasure is there will your heart be also.
