Description
Jesus says in Matthew 6, "Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." The reality for us all is that God is not entirely the treasure of our hearts. Throughout our days we give in to the many temptations and distractions of this world. The good news is, our Lord has always known this would be our human struggle. We are given the season of Lent to, as the God through the Prophet Joel spoke in Joel 2, "Turn to me with all your heart; with fasting, weeping, and mourning. Return to the Lord your God for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and of great kindness." Lent and its spiritual disciplines are the grace-filled path to return to the Lord our God; that He might become more and more the treasure within our hearts.
