Luke 5:17-26

What’s in your heart? What do you really care about? Think about that question. It’s so important. Jesus said in Matthew 6:21, “Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” In other words, the thing that is most important to you will captivate you. You will fight for it at the expense of other things in your life. What is most important to you? Where is your treasure? What do you have your heart set on? What takes up your thoughts? What do you spend your time on, or your money, or your energy?

Jesus came to free us, and he calls us to bring others to him so they can have that same kind of life changing encounter. That is why we exist as a church. That is why he has us here in Campbell River. That is why he has you in the neighbourhood where you live. That is why he has you in the school you attend, and the job you work at. That is why he has you in your business. He has given you breath so you can bring others to Jesus. He gives you your energy, and your money, and your time so you can bring others to have an encounter with Jesus.
