Where Is Your Heart?

Matthew 6:19 “Don’t store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal. Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.NLT

 It's so easy to get caught up into this world, with just everything. There is so much stuff that seems important to us right now, and while these things are good, we can't take it with us. Metal rusts, moths will eat clothes, money will burn, thieves will break in and steal valuables. Nothing lasts, this earth is here for a temporary season. That's why it's important we focus on the things that will last, like sharing the gospel, reading the bible, praying, and well just keeping God at your focus. The things of God will last forever. We need to start focusing on those. Wherever our treasure is, that's where our heart is going to be as well.
 I know this verse might seem like it doesn't relate to my situation, but in fact it does. If I keep focusing on things of this world my heart isn't in a good place, it will be impossible for me to get out of this sin. Yet if I start focusing on the things of God rather then the things of this world it will be a whole lot easier to get out of this mess I've created.

Guess what tomorrow is?!?! Sunday!!!!!!!!!! I'm so excited! Although Kevin and I have nothing big planned, I am honestly just excited to see him! It's been a week since I saw him last, and I miss him.

Tomorrow's Plan: After last week I realized that making a rough plan isn't going to do any good if we don't follow it, I know that's a given, but still. We will not be in the apartment at all together. I don't care how hot it is, we'll just have to deal. I'm going to get at his apartment an hour early so we can do our bible studies before church, then we'll go to church, go to Walmart to get some hangers, and run a few other errands, take engagement pictures, then go back to the apartment, eat lunch, make roasting sticks, go to Kevin's parents house, go back to the apartment and I will leave instantly. We normally hug goodbye, but we are going to stop doing that until people are around because there are times we do so good until that last hug. Again this plan isn't fool proof, but as long as we follow the rough idea we'll be okay. Day Thirty Seven Won!
