God’s word is full of treasure. So much of it is just like finding gold nuggets lying on the surface. I am grateful for that! Yet there is more treasure to be be found by parting the grass and looking down in between. There is still more buried far below the level of the roots. Enough for everyone no matter where they are in their relationship with Him.
Let’s do something a little different this week. I have chosen a beautiful passage in Isaiah. It is FULL of treasure!
I will tell of the kindnesses of the LORD, the deeds for which he is to be praised, according to all the LORD has done for us— yes, the many good things he has done for the house of Israel, according to his compassion and many kindnesses. He said, “Surely they are my people, sons who will not be false to me”; and so he became their Savior. In all their distress he too was distressed, and the angel of his presence saved them. In his love and mercy he redeemed them; he lifted them up and carried them all the days of old. Isaiah 63:7-9 NIV
Doesn’t Isaiah sound like David? Wow! How many separate treasures can you find? Spend a few moments today letting this passages wash over you. Look forward to several posts sharing the treasures I have found. See if I pick the same ones you find! The truth about God. Who He is and what He wants to do with us and for us. That’s what I call treasure!
