“The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.  - Matthew 13:44-46
I know that I have been given a great love for the Romanian people and so, I plan to spend my life serving and sharing life with them indefinitely in country. Many may say that I have found my pearl, Romania - that I am willing to give up all I have and sell all my possessions and move around the world for that which is dearest to me. And that is all true, but there is something that is truer.
I have come to realize that my Pearl is greater than the call or desire to be in Romania, but is the one who calls and desires me. Jesus alone is my Pearl of Great Price. Following and falling more in love with Him everyday is my greatest pleasure. It is for Him and because of Him that I would be and am willing to give up all that I have and go anywhere or do anything. It is that which He loves that now I love.
“Break my heart for the things that break yours.“
