Treasure

God has given us the priceless gift of salvation!  How incredible is this gift?  Jesus describes it with a parable in Matthew 13:45-46.  He describes a man who found an incredible valuable pearl and sold all he had to own this very this pearl.  Read that again…This man sells EVERYTHING just to own this pearl!  I don’t think he has any intention to sell it again.  He is so amazed by this treasure he HAS to own it!  At the cost of his entire lifestyle and everything he’s worked for. He gives it all up to own this pearl.  Is this our reaction to the gift of eternal life?  Do we desire to give up everything for it?
