God...Through Jesus...Paid A High Price

Matthew 13:44

The Message (MSG)
44 “God’s kingdom is like a treasure hidden in a field for years and then accidentally found by a trespasser. The finder is ecstatic—what a find!—and proceeds to sell everything he owns to raise money and buy that field.

Have you ever found something that you thought was worth any price that you had to pay. It may be a car or a house or even clothing. You just had to have it and it didn't matter how much debt you were in after your purchase?

This reminds me of exactly what God did through Christ Jesus for you and for me. God felt that humanity was so worth the price of His Son that He sent Jesus to die in our stead. God wanted humanity to be renewed and redeemed. God wanted that "Garden Relationship" again with humanity. 

God did not count the cost for our salvation...how can we count the cost to us by accepting the free gift?
