What is the eye? Where is your treasure? Matthew 6:21-22
Good morning everyone. God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!
Wow! Tuesday storms and tornadoes doing damage, then Wednesday such a beautiful day. This resembles life to a great degree. We are traveling through storms one moment and then, poof, the bright sunshine of the day. How do we keep the sunshine more and storms less? I cannot help but think: "SIR, WE WOULD SEE JESUS!"
Matthew 6:21-22 "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light."
Where does your heart lie? With the treasures you have here on this earth? Yes, your spouse, children, family and friends are important. You material possessions you have are important. But what if they were all taken away? Would you curse God or praise God? Job was put to the test and he did what? Job remained faithful, even after counsel with wife and friends. His wife told him to curse God and die. Thanks honey!
Where is your heart? What is meant by the lamp of the body is the eye? Well, here is the Johnny down home understanding and feel free to correct me. It is like a rain cycle - water - evaporation - collection of condensation (clouds) - rain - then begin again. The eye sees good - the mind visualizes good - good goes to the heart and we start over and good will come forth. On the flip side the eye sees bad (i.e. porn) - the mind visualizes these scenes - the evil goes to the heart - then the eye wants more. Then where does it stop? Can it stop?
How do you spell stop evil? J E S U S What is your treasure? The resurrection of Christ so that you may have everlasting life? Is your heart with Jesus? If Jesus, God, the Holy Spirit is in my eye, head, heart then there be my treasures and there is not room for evil. "SIR, WE WOULD SEE JESUS!" Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
Johnny
