From Lisa Cronk's: Our Most Priceless Heritage

“Your statutes are my heritage forever; they are the joy of my heart,” Psalm 119:111.

A man owned a vineyard and his sons believed their father to be very wealthy. Since he was secretive about it they could not be sure, but they hoped to inherit a fortune when he died. On his deathbed he told his sons that the secret of his wealth was to be found in the vineyard. The boys immediately began to dig, hoping to find the treasure they believed to be hidden under the vines. They toiled for months, being careful not to damage the vines. In the course of time they dug over every inch of the vineyard and discovered nothing. But that fall their vineyard produced the finest crop of grapes on record. Then they realized what their wise father had done. He had forced them to stop loathing around and instead to cultivate the vineyard. The secret of his wealth was the vines which, properly cared for, would keep them rich.

Walking With God:
Your heritage, too, is priceless but it will not yield its wealth to you without work. When you work at it, the Bible never fails to yield its riches to your soul or allow you to lose sight of your ultimate inheritance …. your Heavenly Home, “My heart is set on keeping your decrees to the very end.”
