Trust and Focus

In what do you trust? We might find security in our homes, our savings or our items of comfort. But they don't last. In Luke ch6, we read Jesus' sermon on the beatitudes in v20-26. It is not evil to have money or comforts, but to value them above God is. Jesus preaches about life eternal, not just the 60 or so years here. He encourages us not to just focus on now. This cheap parlor trick of life will fade. He wants our focus on eternity with Him. Momentary glory is fleeting. People will rush to the next "it" thing or person, leaving the previous one wrung out. Just watch pop culture. When they are done, that one is a shell of their former self. So, where is your trust? Hope spirngs eternal, let our focus do likewise!
