Invest in Heaven


“Sell all that you possess, and give the money to the poor; and you will have treasure in heaven.” Mt. 19:21

Many times we have heard people (and even us) saying “You cannot bring your money in heaven.” I don’t agree. We can bring them there. How? Generously give them to the poor!

Listen, I believe that generosity (in many forms) has the power to transform earthly things to heavenly ones. How did I know it? Jesus said to the young man, “Sell all that you possess, and give the money to the poor; and you will have treasure in heaven.”
Boom! Earthly things turn into HEAVENLY ones.

The Bible has many of this:
“For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you” (Mt. 6:14-15)
“May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.” (Mt. 6:10)
“So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches.” (Mt. 16:11)
“True humility and fear of the LORD lead to riches, honor, and long life.” Proverbs 22:4

Again, your generosity here on earth echoes until heaven. And the material things you generously give here, you will abundantly receive in heaven. 
My dear friend, start investing in heaven.
Give to the poor.

Stay inspired!
