First Sunday of Lent: Treasures in Heaven Sunday
March 2, 2025 On the first Sunday of the great lent, we focus on our heavenly belongings and not on what we have. In the gospel of Matthew 6:19-21, it teaches us to let go of our earthly possessions, and to keep a simple eye. What will we do with all our possessions when we go to heaven? We will not have any use for however much money we have. God teaches us to not focus on what we have on Earth. He has promised us a place in heaven, which is greater than anything we could ever want on earth. On this Sunday, we also are taught not to care about what comes tomorrow, as God will guide us there, as it is mentioned in Matthew 6:26. We need to have faith in the Lord that he will protect us, and as long as we go in his name, no trouble will occur to us.
