I wonder if our Lord had termites in mind when He spoke those words about moth and rust destroying our treasure? The Associated Press reported about how those pesky creatures devoured money worth thousands of dollars:
It was an all-you-can-eat buffet at the bank. An army of termites munched through 10 million rupees ($222,000) in currency notes stored in a steel chest at a bank in northern India. The bank manager discovered the damage when he opened the reinforced room in an old bank building. A police officer told The Associated Press, "It's a matter of investigation how termites attacked bundles of currency notes stacked in a steel chest." The money was put in the chest in January, 2011. In the past, termites had damaged bank furniture and documents. The police have registered a case of negligence against the bank officials.
Where is your wealth? Jesus advises us to invest in heavenly treasure, which will never be ravaged by any earthly power or creature. Are you rich in heavenly treasure?
