Title
A good title that suits the theme of your short story.
Structure
A very good write, much like an allegory or parable, a narrative of an event that illustrates a moral or spiritual lesson. Your story flows well amd teaches a lesson that all of us can learn from.
Language
As you narrate this story, the direction of it is constant and flows to its logical conclusion. You express it from the farmer's point of view as we learn that he tested what he found which resulted in a rare find, something of so much value that it paid off his mortgage. He found the value in it.
Character and Idea
It is from this characterization of the farmer and his find that the reader can see the similarity to the gospel of God's grace. It is this spiritual nugget that is of great price and is free to all who believe. The 'idea' put forth is that if the farmer hadn't recognized his 'pearl' of great price, that nugget that turned out to be gold, he wouldn't have been able to pay off his mortgage and own his land outright.
The same can be said of the Gospel of God's grace. By never understanding how priceless this gift is, and never coming to the saving grace through Christ our Lord is certainly tragedy and loss.
Because as you have stated 'The person who finds Jesus Christ the Savior, makes the happiest, most valuable find possible in his or her lifetime.' That person has found 'true gold.'
Other Points/Overall
A lovely story and invitation to seek and come to know the Lord.
Well penned with much insight and wisdom. Write on.
