I have spent many years
following the twists and turns
of a distorted map
in my quest for a false treasure.
The creator of lies and confusion
placed the map in my hands
and ordered my steps
on this long journey,
leading me through pitfalls and snares,
only to eventually arrive in a desert,
alone and with no hope of survival.
An oasis of living water
was all that saved me.
There I found the real treasure
buried in the depths of my own soul,
for there indwells the spirit of God.
True joy comes from seeking out
more of this treasure
and sharing it with others.
This is the only
treasure
than doesn't turn to dust
and blow away when the winds come.
This is the only
treasure that remains
all of your days
and in all your circumstances.
