“Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
Jesus never says 'do not treasure' — He says choose your vault. Every life is storing up somewhere.
Moth, rust, and thieves are Jesus' short list of certainties: down here, nothing keeps. Heaven is the only climate where treasure lasts.
Treasure moves to heaven when it is released on earth — generosity is the transfer. What you give away is the only wealth you keep.
Jesus does not say your treasure follows your heart — it is the reverse. Put your resources where you want your love to grow.
No market crash, no thief, no slow decay reaches what is stored with God. It is the only holding with no risk at all.
Act: before breakfast, pick one expense you can skip today and send that amount to a person or ministry in need.
