Good Morning,
I made it to my desk finally this morning and it is a good start to a Friday. I have a hot cup of Door County Grasshopper Coffee at my side and it is time to write.
Matthew 6:19-21 NIV 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 treasure in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy and where thieves do not break in and steal, 21. For where your treasure is m there your heart will be also.
This is a simple lesson for Friday. Take a look at your bank ledger sheet and see where the majority of your dollars go each month. Examine the time it took for you to start and complete each of your entries. This is the first way to see if anything goes to God.
If you are honest, you will find that there are at least two things that take up most of your time. Your profession will be number 1 and number 2 should be family. Then comes the hobbies and it will cut into family time if you let it. Your list will include daily living chores as well. Somewhere on that list needs to be time allotted for your walk with God. In that walk time should be allotted for prayer, study, and service to God. A simple spread sheet will reveal to you where your heart is. In you daily speech, don't tell others that God is first when on the ledger He comes in last.
Food for thought on a Friday.
Marty
