As we continue this week allowing the parables of Jesus to speak directly to our situations, mindsets, and core beliefs about who God is, today we’ll dive into the parables of the hidden treasure and valuable pearl. Upon learning about God forsaking everything to find us, we’ll assess our own hearts and see what they value most in this life. Open your heart today and choose to take an honest look. You might be surprised at what you find. Our Scripture for today comes from Matthew 13:44, and today's worship is The More I Seek You by Hannah McClure. This Christmas, find the peace God has waiting for you.
