Lay Up Treasures in Heaven

19 a“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal;  
20 abut lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.  
21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

The Lamp of the Body

22 a“The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is1 good, your whole body will be full of light.  
23 But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
