I was sitting around thinking the other night trying to figure out where to put the little money I have where it would be safe. I remembered what it says in Matthew 6:19-20 "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures upon 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 will your heart be also."
No matter how bad things get here on earth I know that they can never tax nor redistribute what I put into my Heavenly account. For the first time in months I feel a little bit better about my investments. Part of it is guaranteed for eternity, how cool is that?

These are the Words of Christ, but I do not know how to put it in red print. No matter how bad things get here on earth I know that they can never tax nor redistribute what I put into my Heavenly account.

Block/highlight the words you want in a color and select the color from the color palette on the right.
And, I agree with the treasures in heaven. With the recent turn of events in the world around us and the recent economy, I think the End of Times as we know it (The Rapture of the Church) is closer than we think.
Ahhh, Okie, Music to my ears, the Madoff's , the Stanfords and the other Pirate's have all indeed broken in to steal, like has been said before;
'Seek ye first the treasure within"
However the Wzrd is hedging his bets on the earthly plane with a little " Sweat from the Sun"
