Summarizing Paragraph of Luke 12:32-34

From yesterday's message (my interpretation of the meaning of these three verses in Luke 12):


“Fear not, little sheep, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you Jesus as your Savior, your Lord, your Master, your Treasure, the delight of your heart. You will have the kingdom now because of Him, and when He returns you will reign with Him in the age to come. So, sell your possessions and give to the needy. Don’t let your heart be robbed of its ultimate joy in the Person of Jesus. Provide yourselves with moneybags that do not grow old, with a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys. Give so that the message of the kingdom can go forth. Invest in eternal souls. Invest in the kingdom that will go on forever, not in stuff that will just rot. Show the world that Jesus is your treasure and that you long for them to know Him by giving resources to that end above all else, for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
