Happy Thanksgiving

Ironic that last Sunday's Bible Fellowship lesson, part of a church-wide study focusing on Being The Church with an Open Hand, was about living through giving and came on the week of Thanksgiving. I was teaching on Sunday about treasure. The passage was from Matthew 6:21- "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also".

In preparing the lesson, I made a list of the treasures I've been blessed with. My list is probably similar to yours: salvation, my wife and sons, family, health, my job. Each of these things are important to me as I spend time focusing on each of these areas in my life.

Similar to financial investing, the more emphasis I place on an area of my life, the more I deposit into a relationship, the greater the return. And the treasure grows. "For where your treasure is, there you heart will be also".

I have much to be thankful for. I'm sure you do as well. Happy Thanksgiving!
