Do you ever wonder if you have something of value that has been made available to you but you have never recognized it? I came across a story recently of an elderly lady in France who had a painting hanging above the hotplate in her kitchen for many years that she decided to sell when she had to move. It turned out the painting was part of a collection that was thought to have been no longer in existence called, “Christ mocked”, it was part of a series from the 13th century. The painting ended up being sold for 26.3 million dollars. It is currently the most expensive piece of medieval painting ever sold. God has made something of infinite worth available to everyone of us that we need to recognize. John 3:16 reads, 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
