“Well, then,” Jesus said, “give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar, and give to God what belongs to God.” His reply completely amazed them.”
Mark 12:17
The wisdom of Jesus’ response to a trick question strikes every heart as we have to ask ourselves, what do we give to God that belongs to Him?
In Ezekiel 18:4, God tells us that He is the Owner of our soul.
This instruction of Jesus reminds us that whatever we do in this earth, whatever we encounter and whatever comes our way, nothing should take our heart from God. Different responsibilities, challenges and pressures may fight for our attention but nothing should take the place of God in our heart, because our heart belongs to Him.
When you are alone, you are not alone because God is with your spirit.
And at the end of our natural life, the Spirit returns to God who gave it and such as have walked with God here, shall dwell with Him forever.
