Investing. [ Matthew 6 v 24-34]

There is a term called the south sea bubble, it originated in the 18th century, a company called ,the South Sea Company was formed, and people invested in it heavily, expectations grew. Kenneth Morgan writes in his illustrated history of Britain./The bubble grew steadily ,encouaging still more fraudulent bubbles in even more implausible projects as it grew.When confidence eventually failed and the bubble burst the consequences were catastrophic/. All to firmilar story,mankind never appears to learn from their past mistakes, Jesus spoke of investing, in the bank heaven, this is what He taught,/Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth,.......... But lay up treasures in heaven [Matthew 6 v19 - 20 ]. Let us remember our security is in God,who on a coming day will reward us for all we have invested in His kingdom, Martin Luther said we are saved by faith alone , but the faith that saves us is never alone.So today let us all invest in our Saviours Kingdom, with our time, talents and money.[ Dear God help me to invest in Your Kingdom ,for the sake of Jesus my Saviour Amen ]
