Where is your heart?

* Luis Alberto Alves
Stop and think for a few minutes: your heart is in Jesus Christ or the ephemeral treasures of this world? Many love the bad jewels offered by Satan, leaving in the background the golden streets of Heaven, where the obedient Christians will live.

Sometimes this crazy passion is for a boyfriend, boyfriend or even husband or wife. It may be the work, the car, the house, the profession or even the money in the checking account. The concern is with the object which is before our eyes, not the future with the Lord.

In these moments I see how human beings are so small. It is able to sell the definitive dwelling next to God in Heaven for a few minutes of fame here in this rotten world. The same women who sell their bodies to earn fame.

Enjoy this holiday season to deeply analyze in which treasure your heart was captive. If you are not in Jesus Christ you run the risk of losing the aircraft that will depart towards the Heavens, no return ticket, embittering the terror of darkness.
