Matthew 6:21

For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

The repetition of the same words serves for emphasis. Treasures you may and shall have, of the right kind. Treasure the treasures of the only lasting kind, in heaven, heavenly treasures, the gift and possession donated by God through grace. Value these above all the jewels and riches of the whole world. "But you, who are not of the world, but belong in heaven and are bought through My blood for this purpose that you should have another, eternal possession which is ready and ordered for you, you should not permit your hearts to be taken captive here, but, though you be in an office and station in which you must deal with it, do not hanker after or serve it. On the contrary, strive to get those treasures which are kept for you in heaven. For those are true treasures, which moths and rust cannot approach, and safe against all that may eat and steal. For they are so placed that they always remain whole and fresh, and so secured that no one can dig after them. " The treasures of the Christians are even now safely included in the Word of Mercy, and their fullness and eternal enjoyment will be realized in heaven, 1 Peter 1:4; 2 Timothy 1:12. And therefore their minds and hearts are centered in heaven, upon their greatest treasure, secure for them in the hands of God.
