Searching for Hidden Treasure

by Brett Fuller on July 13, 2020

Jesus said in Matthew 13:44 "The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid again; and from joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field." From Christ' perspective, He was  "the man", the field was the earth and we were the treasure.

Treasure is always hidden. Spanish galleons loaded with gold, litter the ocean floor and diamonds are hidden deep in the heart of the earth. Treasure hunters spend fortunes searching for that "great find".

Question: How much time do we spend partnering with Christ searching for people who are the "true riches"? When we discover buried treasure, are we willing to deal with the "dirt" in their lives to get the value. Will we jump into the murky waters of their soul in order to bring up untold wealth? 

People contain the most coveted buried treasure in the universe. How much is it worth to you and what will you give to gain it? Live right, live well...
