The Cost of Everything: Devotion to God as Our True Treasure

Exploring the call to give everything to God, this reflection delves into Scriptures like Acts 2:42-47 and Luke 14:33. We uncover that our true home is found in complete devotion to God, where our treasures are safe from decay (Matthew 6:19-21). The joy of giving everything, akin to the man who sold all he had for a hidden treasure (Matthew 13:44-46), shows that true fulfillment comes from total commitment. Mixed offerings lead to complacency, while Christ demands our all. Let’s embrace the standard of expectation set by Jesus to fully obey His teachings.
