In this passage, the focus is on fasting and money. If we elect to fast, it should be done for the right reason, where the time we would normally spending eating is the time we devote to God. Jesus also reminds us the importance of storing treasures in heaven and not on earth. Being wealthy is not evil, but when this takes us away from God, Jesus tells us we cannot serve both God and money. We can't take any of our earthly treasures to heaven. The only thing we can take to heaven is other people!
