earthly treasures

after 12 years, i decided that it's time to repaint our bedrooms. then we had to take out all our stuff and i realized that i had accumulated so many things over the past years. unbelief was my first reaction because i always followed the policy of getting rid of one stuff if i buy something. i guess it did not work.

i should live by this:

(picture from: http://www.biblepicturegallery.com/Pictures/Moneywar.htm)

Don’t collect for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal. But collect for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves don’t break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Matthew 6:19-21 HCSB
