\u201cLay up for yourselves treasures in heaven\u2026 for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.\u201d \u2013 Jesus (Matthew 7:21)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Jesus actually encouraged us to lay up treasures for ourselves.\u00a0That\u2019s not a selfish desire.\u00a0The key though is this, we aren\u2019t to hoard it here on earth simply for our own personal gain or security.\u00a0Give it away to the needy now, on earth, and that is like sending it on ahead as an investment in eternity.\u00a0It works two-fold: it changes life on earth for the needy and it improves your life in heaven!\u00a0I guess that\u2019s God\u2019s way of rewarding his followers who manage the money he gives them wisely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One added benefit\u2026 it keeps your heart in the right place.\u00a0It\u2019s interesting that Jesus said that your heart will be where you put your treasure and not necessarily the other way around.\u00a0Wise King Solomon told us, \u201cabove all else, guard your heart.\u201d\u00a0When you invest in people who are needy your heart becomes more compassionate and your heart also stays fixed on the long-range goal of life\u2026 to prepare for eternity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you invest in the future with Deed and Truth, we want you to know that these are people, and families, who have worked hard and come a long way toward becoming more physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually healthy.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n We vet every H2H candidate using these criteria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n As we enter the final month of 2023 would you consider investing in the future, both yours and one of our House2Home recipients, by making a generous year-end donation to Deed and Truth? <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
