Monday Thought – August 22, 2016


Good Morning Friends,



“The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.” (Matthew 13:44-46)



What would you give to become part of the kingdom of heaven? What would you sacrifice to know God? How much is it worth to you to be saved?



The point of these parables is not what we have to sacrifice in order to get into the kingdom of heaven, but the awesome value of what God has so freely offered to us. It is worth anything and everything, but God has already paid the price for it!



It is easy to forget the value of what we’ve received from God. It’s easy to take it for granted after having been in His kingdom for years.



Remember the joy when you first found God and knew forgiveness. Remember the value of knowing God.



It’s worth everything! Thank God for it!



His, by Grace, Steve
