Materials
One or two items which are of value to your-personal “treasures”

Lesson
1. Bring out your “treasures” and explain, one by one, why each of them means so much to you.
2. Do any of the youth/children have anything special which they treasure? Ask, “What are some of your treasures?”
3. You might also ask youth/children the following question. Your house is on fire and you only enough time to save three of your personal items… What would you save? Why?

Application
Matthew 6:19-21 tells us that the our treasures are where our heart is. God’s kingdom is the greatest treasure of all. Jesus is the greatest find of all. He is so valuable that all of our treasure becomes worthless in comparison People who find Jesus give up everything else to follow him. When anyone finds him they find riches beyond compare. Yet like Isreal we often let other treasures take the place of God.
