It is amazing
what people will gamble upon; everything from a coin toss to their safety. Often, betting financial resources, relationships
and yes; their very lives. Some dabble, hedging bets here and there; other are
more aggressive and go “ALL IN” holding nothing back. Jesus calls us to the
Kingdom; not as a gamble but a sure thing. We are told in Matthew 13 that the
Kingdom is like a Treasure, a Man seeking fine pearls and as a net cast into
the water. Jesus' point is that when people come to understand how good God is,
they want him. They don’t just love him from a distance. They desire him more
than anything. He shows us there can be no holding back we must go “ALL IN”
living out the Christian life with NO reserves, NO Retreats and NO Regrets.
