Store Up Your Treasures in Heaven

Little by little, our house is being packed up. This time next week the only piece of furniture we will have in our house is a bed, one chair, and a baker’s rack. In three weeks our house will be completely empty.

The Father’s calls us to store up treasures in heaven where moth and dust won’t destroy… and hold loosely to material things. There is such a freedom in knowing that our “things” don’t own us nor do they keep us anchored in one place. I thought this process would be hard on me but in reality it feels so good to be free of “stuff” and it feels so good to have the opportunity to help meet other’s needs by providing the things they need with the things God has given us.

Four…The number of suitcases that I am allowed to take with me to East Asia for the next 2 years. What would you pack? Look around your house, your room, and try to imagine what would pack. This is the stage I am in right now…
