In search of God’s treasure! (Lunchtime post for 10/21/09)



Out all of the treasures we seek and find here on earth I think it is fair to say heaven out shines them all.  Yet, Jesus left heaven and sacrificed everything, even to point of shedding His blood and giving His life.  So what is so important to Jesus that He would leave heaven, the best there is and come to earth in humility as a poor carpenter, and give up His life?  The answer is the lost.  Believers, including all of those who do not yet know Jesus are God’s treasure.  God the Father, who loves Jesus His Son, more than we could ever imagine or love ourselves, gave up His Son in order to save all who would believe in Him.  Christ was and is diligent and committed to seeking His treasure.  It is where His heart is.  If our goal is to seek after God and the things of His heart then lets be encouraged and invest in treasure that will not fade away or fall victim to thieves and let us invest our time, talent, and treasure in praying and sharing Christ with lost.  Pray for divine appoints.  Pray for God to soften the hearts and open the minds of those who do not know Christ in an intimate relationship.  And pray that God will give you a hearts desire for that which He treasures!  God bless.
