Matthew 13:44-46

Date posted: July 31, 2019

Let us remember that we are in the holy presence of God.
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit Amen.

“Joy in finding hidden treasure and pearl of great price”
Matthew 13:44-46
“The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.5 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls, 46 who, on finding one pearl of great value, went and sold all that he had and bought it.

Reflection
When we discover the kingdom of God we receive the greatest possible treasure – the Lord himself. Selling all that we have to obtain this incomparable treasure could mean many things – our friends, possessions, job, our “style of life”, what we do with our free time. Treasure has a special connection to the heart, the place of desire and longing, the place of will and focus. The thing we most set our heart on is our highest treasure.

Lasallian Guiding Principles
LGP states that, “…FAITH IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD. The Lasallian school nurtures in its members an awareness of the living presence of God in our world. It calls all to a deeper awareness of their saving relationship with a caring and loving God and moves all to see the world through the “eyes of faith.”
