Synonyms Of The Word: treasure

As this journey continues, I am overwhelmed by the deep waters I'm jumping into as I study "treasure". Just a quick glance at the synonyms of the word in some ways makes me want to quit. Goodness, that sounds terrible. That is how I tick though - and I must learn to persevere. Sometimes I obsess so much over perfection and worry about how it will end up that I can easily miss out on the journey. Lord, have mercy on me and show me a different way. Seriously though, I need to learn the one-day-at-a-time method. I must keep studying and writing and hoping for a clear revelation of what I'm studying and writing. Phew. 

Here is what I am asking myself today? 

"Lord, where will treasure show up? Open my eyes to see. Help me to take note of what it is You want to show me."

I cannot write the whole list of synonyms I was exploring today, but here are some that stood out to me. These are ones that I know will show up when studying the Word and being open to the work of the Lord in my life.

Apple of one's eye

Wow! 

I will continue to work on defining treasure as I go.

Here is where I started. I took a look at the dictionary, thesaurus, concordance in the Bible, and the Greek dictionary. It's fascinating. 

Do you have a word for the year? Where are you choosing to start as you begin to study and look for it? 

Until next time.
