“All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation, and we have a priceless inheritance—an inheritance that is kept in heaven for you, pure and undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay.”1 Peter 1:3-4 NLT
As a mother and grandmother I am very aware of wills. In a will we leave to our children and grandchildren our treasures. However, the greatest treasure I have is my faith in Christ. My faith purchases a divine will that is stored in heaven. I will that all my descendants may know Him as I have known Him. My earthly treasures are worthless in comparison. My heavenly glory is priceless.
The beauty of heaven is treasure stored there does not rot or lose value. Earthly treasure fades, depreciates, is destroyed by fire or perils, or lost in trade. The greatest treasure is knowing Christ and the assurance that eternity with Him is secure. Nothing else matters. Amen!
