Think of all the books and movies you have seen where someone goes on a journey to find treasure, also know as a treasure hunt. I have been thinking about my journey with God like a treasure hunt. This might seem strange but let me explain.
The treasure map; God's plan for our lives. As we are challenged, experience failures and joys it is like we are on a journey to find treasure. We are discovering more things about ourselves and the world we live in my searching and discovering. With a treasure map there are people who doubt that you know what you are doing. The same with your faith. People will question why you believe what you believe. People will think you are crazy and try to convince you that what you have a faith about is not in existence. But, you pursue that treasure because you know exists; just like the people in the movies and books. Also, as you complete tasks and experience things in the search for the treasure you learn from them and grow. Just like my faith walk, I am a sinner and am not perfect. I will learn from my trials. Finally, at the end of the book or movie the treasure is discovered. My faith walk with God reaps a greater treasure; it is the gift of living eternally with God. The road on the treasure map will not be easy and it will not always be happy but the end will give you the biggest gift of all.
So what are you waiting for? As a Christian go on a treasure hunt for life! Go find and live a life for God because we get the biggest treasure in the end of our lives! :)
