The Most Valuable Treasure on Earth

The parables of the treasure in the field and the pearl of great price both concern the surpassing value of the Kingdom of heaven. Knowing God in Jesus Christ is the most valuable treasure in life, and in these parables Jesus is calling us to give up whatever gets in the way of attaining this treasure. Is there an attitude, grudge, or worry you’re holding onto? Entrust it to God, and He will give you the surpassingly valuable treasure of His peace and joy.
