Treasure In The Relationship

"Obviously, I’m not trying to win the approval of people, but of God. If pleasing people were my goal, I would not be Christ’s servant."

GALATIANS 1:10

The Lord desires that we become like him. In fact, he prayed "that they may be one even as we are." This prayer is his truth and his hope for all of us. It is Jesus saying that we - through him - and only through his Holy Spirit - are given the opportunity for a new life. By abandoning ourselves to "the way" of Jesus Christ, he will live more complete in us. We may become one with our heavenly father as he is one.

In him, we are made whole - made new - cloaked in his right standing - his holiness and his way. All praise belongs to Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior forever. 

Seek first a close personal relationship with the one who is love, the one who is the creator of all things, the one who knows the end from the beginning rather than the treasures and blessings of the most high. In building a relationship with Jesus first - the blessings will come. So go after his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
