Last week Jesus told us that worldly riches don’t ensure heavenly happiness; this week he tells us to store up treasure in heaven… for where our treasure is, there our heart will be also. As citizens of the world, we are expected to behave in predictable ways and meet certain benchmarks: successful jobs, nice houses, good families, new cars, and the latest tech. But as followers of Jesus, we learn that something quite different is expected of us. We are told that we must be prepared at all times for the return of Jesus who will judge us not by worldly standards but by heavenly ones. If Jesus came tonight, would we be ready?
