YOUR GREATEST TREASURE?



When one of our sons, a boy then of six or seven, attending school in Great Britain for the first time, came home saying he had to write a short essay on `My greatest treasure', we wondered which of his treasured possessions he would choose to write about.

When he showed us his completed composition, we were delighted to find that his first sentence was 'My greatest treasure is my Holy Bible.'

Lk 12:34 (NCV): “Your heart will be where your treasure is.”

“If our principal treasure be as we profess, in things spiritual and heavenly, and woe unto us if it be not so! on them will our affections, and consequently our desires and thoughts, be principally fixed.” -  John Owen.
