Sunday Stillness – Matthew 6:20

Matthew 6:20
Watercolour painting by Janis Cox

“But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal” (Matthew 6:20, NIV).

“Don’t hoard treasure down here where it gets eaten by moths and corroded by rust or—worse!—stolen by burglars. Stockpile treasure in heaven, where it’s safe from moth and rust and burglars. It’s obvious, isn’t it? The place where your treasure is, is the place you will most want to be, and end up being”(Matthew 6:20, The Message).

This week I have been studying about being Holy and worshipping in the true way. We have been studying Rational Worship.

Where I place my treasure is where I spend my time and where I want to be. I want to be in God’s Word so I am ready, so I am filled with the Holy Spirit and so I am grounded in the truth.

So I am storing up treasures in heaven – what about you? What is God teaching you this week?

Remember this passage:

 “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will” (Romans 12:1-2, NIV).

Today is Sunday Stillness – Do you have a Scripture that spoke to you this week? Please link below. If you post to Twitter use #sundaystillness and @authorjaniscox.

Feel free to pin the picture.

Read the Sunday Stillness rules if you are new here.

I would appreciate if you would link only about God’s Word. If you have a linky party that’s okay if it is about the same thing. Please no sales or prizes. I want this to be friendly but I must ask you to abide by the rules. Others want to read God’s Word – and that is what I would like the links to be about. I will take down the links that don’t follow the rules. Thanks so much.

Comments always appreciated. Linking with Jumping Tandem, and Scripture and a Snapshot.
