Treasure and value …

Job 28:12-13 

12 “But wisdom—where can it be found?
Where is the place of understanding?
13 Mankind does not know its place;
it cannot be found in the land of the living.

Priorities set values and values are only defined

by what is considered priority in one’s own existence.

Society however has its own sets own values

which are easily adopted in appetite and persistence.

A diamond is a piece of coal that has a certain value.

When starving in a dessert ... it won’t help you much.

In this material world the direct need makes a difference

and when your life is at steak ... priorities change as such.

When you are in your deathbed ... does it help to have millions?

To die in a palace or a shack ... will in departing be a difference?

I guess the lifetime that you walked ... will extent into the Eternal

and the line drawn in the shack ... may be less of a hindrance.

Is the value in the end ... more valuable than its beginning?

Is the measure by which we meet ... still the same in substance?

Is the changing that we do ... really the only constant

that we accept as truth in life ... in our formed environment?

The land of the living can it be ... where death resides?

If five live in a land ... can it be considered breathing?

Where two are gathered in His name life really abounds

for Jesus Christ Himself joins ... the two in one in meeting.

Value is what we mean to God ... if alive in Christ we’re priceless.

Value of the world is always ... in a changing decaying state.

If we are the beholder of ... what is considered a treasure

than where our heart is ... is written up to date.
