Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also

Matthew 6:16-23
Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
The eye is the lamp of the body. If the light within you is darkness, how great is the darkness!
Why?
People can choose what to set their hearts on. They can go all out for money and material things, or for God and spiritual things. But not for both.
Everyone must decide their own priorities. Those who put God first can rest assured he knows all their needs and will not fail to supply them. They can be free from anxiety.
The eyes were thought of as windows, letting light into the body. There is a word-play here on single = generous and evil eye = stingy(小氣).
How?
I choose put God at first priority in my life. For He is my Lord, my Savior.
