The Hidden Treasure and the Pearl

 

Have you ever heard the saying, “There is no change without loss”?

We can’t usually move forward in life without giving up something that no longer works for us. When we think about turning our lives in a different direction, the real question we often face is, “Is it worth the cost?”

Listen to this story Jesus told about His kingdom:

The Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again and joyfully sold all he had and bought the field.

Being part of God’s kingdom is worth everything. Following Him is the best way to spend all our days.

And He goes on to say His Kingdom is like a merchant on the lookout for choice pearls. When he found one, he sold everything he owned and bought it!

That merchant is Jesus. He thinks YOU are worth EVERYTHING. That’s why He went to the cross and died for you.

Won’t you give your life to Him today? He is worth it!


“Being part of God’s kingdom is worth everything.”


Matthew 13:44

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.”
