Jesus Speaks of the Virtue of Fasting…BEAUTIFUL!

When I shared a post where there is a biblical artist rendition photo of Jesus talking about fasting; I felt a little guilty because I shared without checking if it is true or edited. In few clicks (thank you Google); I found what was I was looking for. Pay attention to verse 20 where Jesus obviously compared the virtue of fasting to treasures in heaven where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt and where thieves do not break through nor steal. 

King James Version:

Matthew 6:16-21

¹⁶ Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

¹⁷ But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;

¹⁸ That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.

¹⁹ Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

²⁰ But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

²¹ For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
