5 Days From Jesus ListensIsampula
Precious Jesus,
You are my Treasure! You’re immeasurably more valuable than anything I can see, hear, or touch. Knowing You is the Prize above every other prize.
Earthly treasures are often hoarded, worried over, or hidden for safekeeping, but the riches I have in You can never be lost or stolen or damaged. In fact, I’ve found that as I share You freely with others, I gain even more of You. Since You are infinite, there will always be more of You for me to discover—and to love.
My world often feels fragmented, with countless things—both small and large—vying for my attention. So much “stuff” keeps getting in the way of my desire to spend time enjoying Your Presence. I admit that being worried and bothered about many things comes naturally to me, but Your Word assures me that only one thing is necessary. When I make You that one thing, I choose what will not be taken away from me.
Help me to rejoice in Your continual nearness—and to let my awareness of Your Presence put everything else in perspective. You are the Treasure that can brighten all my moments!
In Your priceless Name, Amen.
