Where's our treasure?

This week, congress passed a bill that buys $700 billion dollars worth of bad debt. Where have we lost our way? When did we get so out of touch with what's important that we have found ourselves here? Jesus told us that when we put our treasure anywhere but heaven, rust and moths and bad debt (he would have said this if he were with us in the flesh today) will consume it. But, when we put our treasure in heaven, it is eternal. When we put it in heaven, we put it in the hands of God. We discover what we truly treasure. That means we are to look beyond the superficial desires to what's really important. What do we really treasure? When we are willing to let go of the surface desires and put our trust in what's really important, our world will become a kinder, more secure, sustainable place. Let's take time to evaluate what's really important. What do we really treasure? Then, let's put that in God's hands.
