I Am your Father who rejoices that once you were lost but now I have you and you are mine! You are My Pearl of great price. I paid for you to release you from prison. I paid with My Life because that is what you are worth to Me. Your value is far above rubies. It is the greatest purchase ever made in the history of the world. You are Mine and I will never stop Loving you and taking care of you, My Treasure above all treasures, My Pearl of Great Price! Luke 15:11-24 But while he was still some distance off, his father saw him and his heart went out to him, and he ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. . . . For this is my son—I thought he was dead, and he’s alive again. I thought I had lost him, and he’s found!’ And they began to get the festivities going. Jeremiah 31:3 I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you 1 Peter 1:18-19 For you know what was paid to set you free from the worthless manner of life handed down by your ancestors. It was not something that can be destroyed, such as silver or gold; 19it was the costly sacrifice of Christ, who was like a lamb without defect or flaw. 1 Peter 2:9 But you are God’s “chosen generation”, his “royal priesthood”, his “holy nation”, his “peculiar people” Matthew 13: 44-45 God’s kingdom is like a treasure hidden in a field. One day a man found the treasure. He hid it again and was so happy that he went and sold everything he owned and bought the field. Also, God’s kingdom is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. 46 One day he found a very fine pearl. He went and sold everything he had to buy it. Luke 15:8-10 8 Jesus told the people another story: What will a woman do if she has ten silver coins and loses one of them? Won’t she light a lamp, sweep the floor, and look carefully until she finds it? 9 Then she will call in her friends and neighbors and say, “Let’s celebrate! I’ve found the coin I lost.”10 Jesus said, “In the same way God’s angels celebrate when even one person turns to him.”
