TREASURE HUNTING

Have you ever gone on a treasure hunt? I’ve been on three treasure hunting expeditions that have endangered my life. The human desire to be rich is just neverending. It’s been said that by the time Alexander the Great had died, he’d conquered most of the world known to the ancient Greeks including the mighty Persia. Accordingly, “The armies of Alexander the Great had thoroughly defeated Darius. All the rich spoils of Persia were theirs. Alexander the Great kept for himself only one item from among those splendid treasures. It was a small jeweled box. What do you suppose he kept in that box? It was a copy of The Iliad. The value of books can hardly be overestimated.” There’s an even better book that’s the best seller of best sellers. A book that’s surpassed all the books ever written under the sun from generation to generation – the Bible: the treasure chest of God. Are you searching for treasures and riches? If you are, read the Bible and look for the true map that will lead you to true riches. Follow Matthew 6:20, “Store your treasures in heaven, where they will never become moth-eaten or rusty and where they will be safe from thieves.”
