WHERE LIES THE TREASURE?

thZX4PR28H

Most of us like to hear stories about finding undiscovered treasures.  Some of the greatest books in literature, the most popular movies and exciting theme parks are based on the search for that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.  We may dream of winning the lottery and filling our pockets and hearts with happiness.  We may hope for a huge raise that will make our lives easier.  We dream about that fabulous trip we’ve always wanted to take.  We all like to think of ourselves in a better place with no worries or problems.

We might come across an antique piece of jewelry in a box left behind by grandma and think this is the answer to all our financial problems.  It could be that old book discovered at a garage sale or an unknown trinket at a flea market.  Maybe your treasure lies right within your reach and you don’t even know it.  I have been on both sides of the financial realm and they aren’t really that different.  Each side holds its own problems.

If you’re the owner of God’s Word to you, the Bible, you have a treasure that cannot be measured by human standards.  It has advice on every problem you’ll encounter in life.  You can learn about marriage and family – financial decisions – how to plan for the future – how to find success and confidence – how to overcome depression – what kind of spouse to look for – what to do when it seems there’s no hope – how to trust, live, relate to others,  overcome fear and that’s just the beginning.

Treasures of this world are only temporary.  Soon they run out and we have to find another way to live.  With the Holy Bible, you can be assured that the advice, wisdom, knowledge and treasure within its pages never run out.  They last for an eternity.

About atimetoshare.me

As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension. I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog. I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ. My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.
