Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where
moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up
for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and
where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your
heart will be also.
—Matthew 6:19-21

have one eye on the window and the other on the forecast. Meteorologists are
predicting an epic storm, a blizzard of historic proportions. One to two feet
of snow is expected to drop on our region within the next two days, halting all
life as we know it. The governor has declared a state of emergency. Schools and
businesses are closed. And we all brace for the storm. But are we prepared?
