What do you Treasure???

Matthew 13:44-52 “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it. “Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish. When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on the shore. Then they sat down and collected the good fish in baskets, but threw the bad away. This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. “Have you understood all these things?” Jesus asked.“Yes,” they replied. He said to them, “Therefore every teacher of the law who has become a disciple in the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of a house who brings out of his storeroom new treasures as well as old.” 
The Kingdom of Heaven - God's rule and reign in our hearts and lives - is where we want to be.  But how do we get there? What is the road?  First, it is by choosing to respond to the seed He puts in our lives.  Beyond that, Jesus gives three fast parables to tell us we are to be willing to give all it takes; we must be willing to make His Kingdom our highest treasure.  It is not always easy. sometimes we will have to wait - like waiting till harvest to separate the weeds from the grain, or waiting till we get to "that fair shore" to separate the good fist from the bad. But it, and He, are worth it all.
