Luke 12:34

34 ubi enim thesaurus vester est ibi et cor vestrum erit

Luke 12:34 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 12:34

For where your treasure is
Whether in heaven, or in earth, there will your heart be also: the heart is always set upon the treasure, and as is a man's treasure, such is his heart, that is, set upon it; if his treasure is only here, and he has not the true riches, his heart is only earthly and carnal; but if his treasure is heavenly, his heart and conversation will be in heaven; (See Gill on Matthew 6:21).

Luke 12:34 In-Context

32 nolite timere pusillus grex quia conplacuit Patri vestro dare vobis regnum
33 vendite quae possidetis et date elemosynam facite vobis sacculos qui non veterescunt thesaurum non deficientem in caelis quo fur non adpropiat neque tinea corrumpit
34 ubi enim thesaurus vester est ibi et cor vestrum erit
35 sint lumbi vestri praecincti et lucernae ardentes
36 et vos similes hominibus expectantibus dominum suum quando revertatur a nuptiis ut cum venerit et pulsaverit confestim aperiant ei
