Real Treasure

Matthew 13:44-46
“The Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure that a man discovered hidden in a field. In his excitement, he hid it again and sold everything he owned to get enough money to buy the field. “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a merchant on the lookout for choice pearls. 46 When he discovered a pearl of great value, he sold everything he owned and bought it!

The treasure was great and of real value… and it cost them something to get it… Jesus is worth it…

John 17:3
And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.

I think this is the clearest picture of what it is to be a Christian…

When Jesus comes into our lives, He blesses us with some cool things… peace, comfort, power… But the most awesome thing that Jesus gives us is that we can know Him…

Following Jesus will cost us something… but knowing Him is worth it…

Jesus, above all His blessings, is our reward for a life lived for Him… and He is worth it!”
