Light for My Path Daily Devotion

Bible Reading

“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”  (Matthew 6:19-21  ESV)

Hymn    ELH 264:1,3    Jesus, Priceless Treasure

Jesus, priceless Treasure,
Source of purest pleasure,
Truest friend to me.
Ah, how long I’ve panted,
And my heart hath fainted,
Thirsting, Lord, for Thee!
Thine I am, O spotless Lamb!
I will suffer naught to hide Thee,
Naught I ask beside Thee.

Hence, with earthly treasure!
Thou art all my Pleasure,
Jesus, all my Choice.
Hence, thou empty glory!
Naught to me thy story
Told with tempting voice.
Pain or loss Or same or cross
Shall not from my Savior move me
Since He deigns to love me.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, teach me to treasure Your promises of forgiveness, life and salvation over all things this earth offers.  In Jesus’ name I pray.  Amen.
