The body of David Livingstone was buried in England where he was born, but his heart was buried in the Africa he loved.
At the foot of a tall tree in a small African village the natives dug a hole and placed in it the heart of this man who they loved and respected.

Let us take a look at what Paul had to say to Timothy about this
Please Stand in honor and respect of God’s Word
1 Timothy 6:17-21
This is not our Home
Here in verse 17 Paul is not not making a statement about, is it a sin or wrong to be rich our not.
If you remember a couple weeks ago when we looked at verse 6-10 we understood that Paul stated the LOVE of money was the root of all evil not the money itself.
What is Paul saying here then?
He is telling Timothy to teach, (command, charge) those who are rich not to place their hope in the things of this age, (this world, this time)
Even Matthew make mention of “this age” in Matthew 12:32
Conceited - thinking high of yourself / elevating yourself about others.
That person that thinks they are better than you.
To good to talk to you.
Hope - trust in
Money will not get you into heaven
Money will not do anything for you in eternity.
Paul was trying to get across the false hope of money
If we understand that this world is not our home as it states in Philippians 3:20
Then we will understand the instruction to not wast your time trying to accumulate something that in the long run will not matter.
fixing hope on uncertainties of riches which can be here today and gone tomorrow
September 11, 2001 better known as 911.
This day not only impacted our nation and our feel of security it also impacted the stock market.
I work with a lady in the Dallas area while in school that came in to work a few days after the stock market had open back up and she look like she had seen death.
In her mind I am sure she did.
Because of the crash of the stock market she had lost well over half of her retirement.
She had work many hours even to the detriment of her health to store up money for retirement and lost it over night.
The bible even gives a great example of this in Luke 12:16-34
3. What must we fix our hope on then?
God -
God can supply
James (the half brother of Jesus) writes about gifts in James 1:17
