Topic:
Control In Life
A lot of life comes at us and we think we have limited control. Sometimes it seems we
have no control. A million refugees are driven out of their homes.
Six million Jews die in a Nazi death machine. The doctor says, "Im sorry,
there isnt anything we can do." Jobs are lost. Time slips away and we find out
it is too late to do or be whatever it was we wanted to do or be. However, maybe life is
not always what it seems. Maybe there is more going on around us and through us than we
can imagine. Jesus tells us there is a lot more to what is going on around us than what we
see, hear, or touch. Jesus tells us there is a storehouse in heaven. What the storehouse
contains is up to us. We control what we store away. We cannot put things of earth in this
warehouse in heaven, but we can put the things of heaven there. Where your treasure is
your heart is. Notice that what we store away goes before our heart. On the surface, you
would think it would be the other way around. It would seem that what you hold in your
heart goes to heaven. However, Jesus says we must be actively storing away at all times.
