The kingdom of God is likened unto a treasure hidden in a field, or to a lost coin whose owner searched diligently till she found it. Indeed, there is preciousness associated with the kingdom that warrants our seeking that we might find it.

  • We need to find the yoke of rest in Christ Jesus (Matthew 11:28-30). Our increasingly complex and difficult world has left many thousands without hope, perplexed, and on the verge of suicide. There is relief in God’s safe haven, Jesus Christ, which can be found nowhere else.
  • There is a pasture which provides sustenance when we go in and out to feed in it (John 10:9). The spiritual nourishment provided by God will ease the discomfort brought on by a spiritually bankrupt world.
  • There is God’s grace, which is found in Christ (Hebrews 4:16). God does not want any to be lost and has provided His avenue of salvation to all who will seek Him.

To learn more about these precious treasures that man needs to find, visit, call, or write.
