Hidden Treasures!!

Royal Daughter's Girls Camp 2012! 


Beautiful four days of encouraging one another to seek the Lord Jesus!!  Days of undeserved mercy, of grace, of joy in His faithfulness and His Goodness!! He is so good to us!

Our theme ~ Seeking after Jesus as for Hidden Treasure!

"Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart." (Jeremiah 29:12-13)

Oh, the memories are so precious! If only they did not have to end! I cannot wait until the time when we will all be together for all eternity!!


"And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of a doubtful mind. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. But rather, seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you..." (Luke 12:29-31) 


"Lay not up for yourselves treasure upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." (Matthew 6:219-21)

Oh, how amazing it is that He wants us to seek Him! And that He promises that when we seek Him, we will find HIM! He has bought us with His Blood ~ He longs for us to be free from the defeat of this life, this world, this sin. He wants us to walk with Him, oh! to know Him, to seek Him, to live in His Will, His Joy, His Purpose, His Glory!!!

"There is an endless supply of miraculous, powerful, world-altering truth in the pages of the Bible. It is like a map for buried treasure - to find the precious jewel takes focused time and energy. The Bible, though sacred and precious, is not the buried treasure we seek; it is just the map that leads us to the true reward, an eternity of intimacy with our Prince, Jesus Christ!"

Oh, let's keep seeking to find the treasures hidden in our Lord Jesus!! (Colossians 2:2-3)
