Our heart will be where our treasure is.
We cannot avoid the dangers that are rampant in life without God's immediate and continuous help. So let's continually pray for His help. How can we pray to Him if we're not with Him? How can we be with Him if not by thinking of Him often? And how can we think of Him often if not by developing a holy habit of doing so?
You might say that I keep repeating the same thing. That's true because this is the best and simplest method I know. As it's the only one I use, I recommend everyone else to do the same.
We must know before we can love. To know God, we must think of Him often; and when we come to love Him, we will naturally think of Him often, for our heart will be where our treasure is.
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
What can help me keep my relationship with God simple?
What does my heart desire the most?
