The hidden treasure and the pearl
Jesus compared the kingdom of heaven to treasure hidden in a field and to a merchant finding a pearl of great value. In each case, the discoverer gladly gives everything to possess what has been found (Matthew 13:44-46).

📖 Matthew 13:44–46
44The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and in his joy he went and sold all he had and bought that field. 45Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls. 46When he found one very precious pearl, he went away and sold all he had and bought it.
