Pearls




I've always liked pearls. They're so timeless and beautiful. You get the image of someone with really nice teeth or just very ladylike elegance.

Matthew 13:45-46
"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking fine pearls,
and upon finding one pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and bought it."

So I've been wearing this pearl ring lately (so much that i needed to switch hands because I got this little tan forming), and it's just a constant reminder that Jesus is my pearl of great value--that I don't need anyone or anything else to satisfy me. that I should be willing to give up all I have for Him.
