life, love, heart, treasure.

Where you invest your love, you invest your life. - Mumford & Sons, Awake My Soul

This line strikes me. Its unfailingly true. The place where you invest all of you love and time, you are going to also invest your life in it.

Matthew 6:21 has someone extremely similar to say, which makes me like Mumford & Sons even more:

"Where you invest your treasure, you also invest your heart" or "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also"

Even Jesus agrees. Or perhaps, Marcus Mumford agrees with Jesus. Either way, they are in concordance.

Eventually, the things that we spend time on become the things most important in our lives. Maybe we wish that they weren't, but the truth is, when we make something a priority and pour our time, money, and energy into those things, it is a strong indication of where our hearts lie. Every time.
