Today’s readings teach us that Faith in Jesus as our God and Savior and sacrificing everything in life to do the will of God are equivalent to discovering and possessing the most valuable treasure or the “pearl of great price”. In other words, keeping a personal relationship with Jesus, remaining in a state of grace, and sharing his view of life are the most beautiful and the most precious things in the world. Our culture has adopted the custom of preparing and getting “the sacraments ~ spiritual treasure” and then hidden away without living it. Sacraments are treasure of the kingdom that require to live it daily. Going to the Eucharist on the Lord’s Day is needed by all baptized Catholics.
