QUESTION FOR THE COMMENTS: What do you most treasure?

[@lvshope]

Relationships. Currently Bella my aging pup with Cushinngs. Savor the moments. Love that Jesus cares.

This team has prayed faithfully for me, too, and for my daughter, and she is alive today because Jesus is healing her. He can take her home at any time, but I am continuing to believe He wants her HERE to bless others, just as He has me here for that reason. I am here in this world at His pleasure, and so is she. Thank you, Become New team!!! :)

Ok….. now this is my favorite. (Our Pandy was a Dennis and Raspberry❤ ) I wanted to say thank you for praying for me a while back. The prayer I received was so beautiful. I copied it and have it saved on paper and read it often. The love you all show and give to others is such a gift. I thank God for you🙏🏼

[@beverlyklaiber2152]

Ray sent a prayer to me in response to a request I had sent. I have read and read it again and again. It was beautifully Spirit-filled and I cherish his words and hang on their promise! Thank you, Ray!

[@cherylematteo]

Ray is gentle yet mighty in his comforting words. Thanks for the blessing of Ray

Now this will preach, especially in the times we live in. I’ve always loved this section in the Sermon on the Mount, but thanks to God’s work in these folks and their ministry, I love it even more. And I pray that all of us invest our time, resources, talents, and treasures to serve others. That is how we will know what love is: to create value, not seek it. Thanks, Pastors John and Tim, etc.!

[@tracismith9590]

I have been on a spiritual journey these past two years, and I thank you for your teaching and truthfulness. It's refreshing! Thank you to you John and the team that surrounds you...

[@jwwarner28]

I treasure all of your teachings for they live in my heart. Please keep filling up our hearts so that can even grow more!

[@lynnrickert1]

Right to the heart. We are God's treasures. Let us treasure his other creatures, treasure what is eternal. Seek first the kingdom. Amen. Thank you for your prayers.

[@jaynebak3244]

I will never get tired of this story - but today is probably my most favorite application of the lovable Pandy doll treasures in heaven heaven on earth love what God loves thank you for the reminder! because it matters, jayne

[@sueeby8795]

As a kid, I had dolls I loved. So touching how the family treasured that doll in love for each other.

[@petejackson565]

A blessing just to read the comments!

[@lvshope]

Appreciate John’# intertwining humor and golden nuggets of truth.

[@elaineh1041]

good morning ☀️ Beautiful…trusting God to be more like lil Barbie, just love wholly & purely…because she loved so much, she passed on her love to generations, this is what I treasure most. 🙏🏻💕🍃

[@victorsustaitao5023]

My biggest joy in life is being generous to church and random people guided by God

[@rayfowler9765]

I re-read the Parable of the Good Samaritan earlier this month. The Samaritan was certainly storing up treasure in people. Love your neighbor as yourself. Who is your neighbor? Everyone.

[@philipwayne4637]

I grew up with shame and bullying, and for a long time, I had no identity. 17 years ago, God entered my life, and step by step, this Methodical God/Savior began working on removing that mess. He does not stop.

[@eliacuomo490]

The love of my family and the love that God has for me.

[@sharongtaylor8765]

Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful truth. Please pray for my brother, he had an accident last week with head injury, not waking up. 🙏

[@sarahdavies7795]

I treasure my family and friends, particularly now my kids are older (15 & 17). I really cherish the time we spend together as I know things will change in the next few years as they will probably move out.

[@RoseExieDavis]

John, ♡ I'm grateful to God you were so blessed to be born into such a loving family. This story is priceless ◇ I love it, thank-you for sharing.

[@TodayinJensSewingRoom]

What do I treasure? That's a question that bears some thought. But I think at the base, it's time.

[@cynthialovewell5909]

Hmmm… what do I treasure? ❤ in life in my memory I have loved my Parents and all my family, and precious children and grandchildren. But my relationship with Jesus began when I was 7 years old. We watched “ The King of Kings” film by Cecil de la mille, as old as that film and portrayal of Christ was, I cried at the end and was so moved . I treasure the privilege of knowing we carry the spirit and love of Christ.

[@vickiedrendel8114]

You all prayed for my daughter Ashley too,… and on New Year’s Eve she declared that Jesus is her savior and was baptized! She wanted to surprise me and WOW 🎉 the joy.

[@BecomeNew]

Vickie! What amazing news! Yay God!

[@jlheidbreder]

Spending time learning about our LORD🙏🏻🕊💙

[@RoseExieDavis]

◇My treasure is our Holy Abba's Holy love & reassuring Spirit filled Holy Word ♡

[@paulkick7870]

I loved hearing this story again. Thank you for sharing it again.

[@tracykamemoto4602]

Thank you Ray for praying for us!🙏

[@clovisjr1957]

Thank you John and team! I needed this reminder today!!!

[@daniellemeadows8291]

❤

[@DinkievanderWesthuizen]

May I ask that you pray for me? I need a job urgently. I appreciate the prayers if this is possible!

[@BecomeNew]

Praying that you lift up your eyes to the mighty God we serve as we present your heart and requests to Him May he guide and protect you Bucky

Put yer souls in space, physically. Space is heaven. What should a person gain if they own earth, and lose soul? Tribulation is coming! With the Jews, upwards, go to!
