moths and vermin do not destroy, and where
thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where
your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

16. Priorities Show Zeal
Matthew 6:31-34
31 So
do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we
eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall
we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these
things, and your heavenly Father knows that
you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom
and his righteousness, and all these things will
be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not
worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will
worry about itself. Each day has enough
trouble of its own.
17. The Situation
Well I don't know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain't right,
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you,
Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you,
Stuck in the middle with you.
18. The Situation
Ephesians 2:1-3
1As
for you, you were dead in your
transgressions and sins, 2 in which you used to
live when you followed the ways of this world
and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the
spirit who is now at work in those who are
disobedient. 3 All of us also lived among them
at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh
and following its desires and thoughts. Like the
rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath.
