Read Matthew 13:45-46 in the NABRE onlineAgain the kingdom of heaven is like to a merchant seeking good pearls. Who when he had found one pearl of great price, went his way, and sold all that he had, and bought it.
Reflection
One pearl, everything else sold. Scripture treats wholehearted devotion as good arithmetic, not fanaticism.
