The first random thought of nothingness

“Where will we turn when our world falls apart and all of the treasures that we’ve stored in our barns can’t buy the kingdom of God.” – Jason Upton 1200 Feet Below Sea Level

This is a statement that Jason Upton ministers to his listeners at the start of song number three on his new CD 1200 Feet Below Sea Level and I am captured by it ever since I heard it nearly two months ago. Much too much time is spent chasing the earthly treasures. Go ahead, scream “Guilty!” at me, as I know I am one of many that has allowed myself to be inticed with the things of this world that will soon come to pass. Moths and rust, right?

To think of the time we spend storing up these treasures and for what good? They can’t buy the kingdom of God. ARGH! The madness… time wasted… God, change my desire to only be for things that will further your kingdom here on earth!

 

PS – If you haven’t picked up Jason Upton’s newest CD, you better get on the stick. You may find that you’re missing out. :-)
