Are you God's treasure or possession?

Matthew 16:24 - "Then Jesus said to His disciples, "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me."


So often Christians find themselves loving the thought of being treasured by God, but are we content that we're His possession?


It's natural to want to be treasured.  But if we're a possession of someone or something, it means that we lay down our lives and become subject to someone or something.  It means that we're giving up control of our lives.  This is where some fall short.  To be a disciple of Christ means we have to turn our lives over to Christ, completely.  Not on Sundays or certain times of the year, but daily.


Let God take possession of your heart; your soul.  God treasures us already as His child.   God deserves our everything.  He deserves our obedience and our daily commitment to serve Him.


Be possessed by God.  It will change your life!
