One night, a group of thieves broke into a jewelry store, but rather than stealing anything, they simply switched all the price tags. The next day, no one could tell what was valuable and what was cheap. The expensive jewels had suddenly become cheap, and the costume jewelry, which had been virtually worthless before, was suddenly of great value. Customers who thought they were purchasing valuable gems were getting fakes. Those who couldn’t afford the higher priced item were leaving the store with treasure. In our world, someone came in and switched all the price tags. It’s hard to tell what is of a value and what is not. Great value is given to the accumulation of material wealth and the power that goes with it. The world puts a high price on popularity, prestige, beauty and fame. But Jesus taught that such things are virtually worthless in the only jewelry store that matters. The Kingdom of God. Do not store up yourselves treasures on earth where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. Matthew 6:19 and 20. Today, know you are so valuable to God and to his Kingdom. God bless you today, Captain Ken Chapman.
