Matthew 6;19-34
Our treasure is what we spend out time, money and thoughts on, like for me it would be manga, dramas, art, and random asian stuff. But none of this will lasts forever. If we store our treasure, what we find most precious to us on earth it will rot away. It's also same with your looks, when you're young you're pretty and stuff and when you grow old, no matter how much anti-aging cream you put on, you're still going to go wrinkly. And things like money can easily be stolen as well, people would go bankrupt and lose all their money.
But if we store our treasure in heaven, it won't ever rot away, it won't ever be stolen, it would always be there, as long as we put God first^^ To put God first, we can spend our time on God, spend our money on God-like giving to charity, giving to church and spend our thoughts on God. Eeekk!! I don't think I do any of these><" But we can't spend half our money,time and thoughts on God and the other half on some other crap cause that's just being half-hearted. And that would meant that we aren't putting God first=(
I always think I need money, cause I need it for food, save up money for stuff like Fahrenheit cause I thought they were coming...TT^TT but we don't actually need thaaat much money, it's mostly for what we WANT and not what we NEED. God would look after us since he is a great and awesome God =D We just need to seek God's kingdom and his righteousness and then he will provide us with stuff.
We can seek his Kingdom and his righteousness by praying to him to help us, going to church to learn more about God=] and what matters is what your heart puts first, and just being sincere about God^^

Get Real...
Matthew 6; 1-18
When we do something like charity, we don't have to let everyone know that we are doing something for charity. Cause that's what hypocrites do, they do it so that everyone can see what they are doing and then they will get praises.
But giving money in public doesn't mean you are a hypocrite as long as you are sincere about it. When we do something for good, we should just always do it with our hearts and then we would feel good about it.

Love Your Enemies.
Matthew 5;38-48
If you don't know how to look up the bible, don't have one or just can't stuffed, here's the link=]
So if someon punches you in the face, most people would punch them back right?
But if you are a nice christian person you're not supposed to cause that's what God says, but most people still punch that person anyway- I prob would too><" In the passage it says you let them punch your other side of your face too, that person would be pretty surprised. Another example is, if someone breaks your computer, you let them break your other one too=D I don't really get this part though... Anyways, if someone kills your family... maybe not that extreme, say they wrong you in a way, like they punch your face, human nature would make you want to punch them back, but we can also not retaliate, and not even hate them for it, that would be really really hard though. But some people can do that. And you can show love for them by praying for them=) You can pray that they will change and that they will know God=) And thats it... so hope this was helpful, good in some way><"

Hullo everybody who reads this blog=]
This blog is supposed to be something to help people to believe in God, so its a christian blog or something.. Anyways I'm from Australia, Sydney(YAYS~) and every year there's this event called Rice- no you don't eat rice there- you actually learn more about God there and there's games as well. Anyways, this years talk was about missing identity and I could kind of relate to it, so thats why I decided to call this blog missing identity=)
Anyways I hope this blog can be useful to those who want to become christians. And I'm not a pastor or anything so I'm just going to post whatever I learn at church, this would be good for me too I guess since I don't think I'm that close to God><"
And if there are Christian people that know MUCH better it would be nice for you to tell me stuff=)
Ohh yeah, I'm evangelical christian btw^^
