Jesus is the great treasure. Knowing Him is the greatest gift! We can surrender all of our life to Him...He is worth it! We never could out give God because He shares His very presence with us.
What amazes you about Jesus? How are you growing in intimacy with Him?
The parable of the sower is so true with this world... Some people reject the truth about Jesus, some people get excited about it at first, and then realize that Jesus asks for your whole life and your whole heart and they don't want to give that much because they don't believe that it's worth it. There are people who really just don't care at all about Jesus and think He was just some guy. But some people see the truth. Some people chose Jesus even though He asks for everything. Because they know that He is worth it everything they have and everything they are. Because He makes them who they are! When we seek the truth and find the truth and find ourselves in the truth, we want to share the truth! We have a desire to overflow the truth! Because what's the point of the inflow if there's no overflow? Those who believe and trust and know and love Jesus will find their true identity in Him and in Him alone, and they will overflow! Jesus' light will shine through them into the darkness! This is who we are meant to be
ReplyDeleteThanks Hannah! The parable is really convicting. It shows the condition of our heart. May our hearts always be good soil to bear fruit for the King.
