When God is our treasure, delight, and what we are living for, there is nothing in this world that can move or take Him away! When we can acknowledge that everything is given to us by the Lord there is nothing we have to fight to keep! If God wants you to have something, you will have it. We don't have to strive to keep anything in this life. The only thing we should be concerning ourselves with is maintaining closeness w/the Lord in everything and obedience to Him. If we are doing that, He will take care of everything else. Lord, help us abandon our lives, our reputation, our living, and all of our needs to You. God honors those who honor Him.
“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 KJV
