"Where your treasure is..."

 A good FAMILY HOME EVENING deserves a blog post : )

 

Matthew 6:21 "Where your treasure is there will your heart be also."

 

 

 Marc and I chose different symbols of what people choose to put their hearts into.

 

Family

The Earth

Music

Food

Scriptures

Smart Phones

Athletics/Games

 Dreams

Computers

Missionary Work

 

 

We taught them that while we are here on earth that the way we spend our time adds up.

 

We all got 8 coins to distribute one at a time to the items we deem as our treasures.

 

 

 The

 Treasure

?

Where did it go?

 

 

What the Savior teaches us is symbolic.

 

We made it literal.

 

 

 

 Lots of different items got our gold treasures in priority.

 

(Listen people Banana Grams IS MAJOR :)

 (nah, it just represented games and sports)

 

 

 How did it weight out ?

 

What of all of these things will be with us when we leave this planet?

 

What will eventually 'turn to rust?'

 

What matters?

 

Where is our TREASURE?

 

Really.

 

 

 

Well, after all is said and done.

 

We found our

 

Hearts Desire

 

 

and our

 

TREASURES

 

were:

 

Family

 

The Gospel of Jesus Christ (scriptures)

 

Dreams

 

Sharing the Truth

 

If this is where our treasure lies. Well, then were does our time go?  Are they in harmony? If not.

Well...

 

They should be

 

and

 

We should try harder

 

Eventually

 

Moths and Rust will corrupt...earthly gains

 

Eternally

 

Nothing can change our testimonies and family relationships and the truth.

 

Careful with those coins people. . .

 

Careful with those hearts...

 

Careful
