Chose to live in the grace of God

Am I living in the grace of God or the despair of this broken world?

In Matthew 6:19-21 it says:

(19)Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. (20) But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. (21) For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."

In this day and time everyone is looking to the news, Facebook or some other social media to find peace and joy in their lives, only to become less and less content with what this world has to offer.

Perhaps we should try what Jesus said and store our treasures in our Father's kingdom. So I say to you, put down the social media, turn the TV off, pick up the Bible and look at what God may have for you. You may find the world is not that bad when God is in charge of everything; you can have peace and joy once again, and not live in fear of this world.

Seek God in everything through Jesus Christ and your life will be better than ever before. Give God another chance; He is waiting to heal broken souls.

God bless you.
