Top Reasons to Give It All

“All Jesus did that day was tell stories—a long storytelling afternoon. His storytelling fulfilled the prophecy:

‘I will open my mouth and tell stories;

I will bring out into the open

    things hidden since the world’s first day.’

Listen up! The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a someone chanced upon and then reburied; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.

Here’s another! The kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls; on finding one pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.”
