Matthew 6:21

[Now Jesus addresses each person directly:]
For where your treasure [what you value most] is, there your heart will be also.
[It was common to build storage buildings to store possessions that were investments for the future. These often consisted of expensive clothing (which moths destroyed) and metal art objects (which rusted). In Greek, there is a play on words in verses 19-20 – the verb for gathering, thesaurizo, shares the same root as the noun for treasure/treasures, thesauros. In English, this could be illustrated as follows: "Do not gather your collections here on earth, but gather your collections in heaven."]
