Dear Friend in the Lord,
“Kingdom of Heaven”: In today’s Gospel, Jesus proclaims that the “Kingdom of Heaven” is the most precious treasure in our life; this is divine gift of faith that offers Eternal Life. Ponder on, “Do we value people, possessions and power as more important than the ‘Kingdom of Heaven’? What do our daily priorities and preoccupation show?
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Matthew 13:44-46
Jesus said to the crowds: ‘The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field which someone has found; he hides it again, goes off happy, sells everything he owns and buys the field.
‘Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls; when he finds one of great value he goes and sells everything he owns and buys it.’
