Luke 12:34

"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." (NASB)

STRONGS HEBREW/GREEK ORIGINS

"For where your treasure (thesaurus: place in which good and precious things are collected and laid up; treasury, storehouse, repository) is, there your heart (kardia: the center and seat of all physical and spiritual life) will be also."


SUMMARY

Wherever you store what is precious to you is where the center and seat of what makes you who you are resides.

MEDITATION

In the verse prior to this one, Jesus is addressing the disciples earthly possessions versus their heavenly treasures. Today, He poses the same challenge. What do you personally deem as treasures? Where does your happiness and purpose lie? Is it your job, your church, your house, your car? Today, take some time to assess where your storehouses are, for there you will find where the very center of your entire being dwells.
