Heart Follows Treasure

Where your treasure is there your heart will be.
Is my treasure that audacious to captivate me?
Can it capture my heart making me its slave?
Can it truly come to dictate the way I behave?

Where your treasure is there your heart will be?
Who decides this, is it my treasure or is it me?
Doesn't my treasure begin within me as a desire?
Isn't it something that I am choosing to acquire?

Where your treasure is there your heart will be?
Is it possible for my treasure to not control me?
Am I that easily given over to what I treasure?
Am I destined to serve what gives me pleasure?

Where your treasure is there your heart will be!
The one who said this spoke with real authority.
For He knows the heart and what lies therein,
He knows its deception and it's capacity to sin.

Where my treasure is there my heart will be,
And there you see what has truly captured me.
So be diligent self, make sure each day you start,
With a prayer to treasure Christ with all your heart!
