THE NATURAL PEARL OF GREATEST PRICE

Good Morning!

Golden Pearl

Last night I dreamt about a huge golden pearl.

This morning I did some research because of my curiosity about the golden colour.   I wondered if a speck of gold inserted into an oyster shell would make this occur.  My mind was occupied also with the biblical concept of Jesus Christ being the Pearl of greatest price.   This was always illustrated by a pristine WHITE pearl.  (my natural question in the night was…..If the Glory of God was on the pearl the same as on Christ would the pearl be golden?)

I discovered some interesting information.   Yes, it is true that artificially golden pearls can be produced by man.     BUT………

Did you know?  the article I found read.     Golden South Sea Islands pearls are rarer than the metal gold.   They are exceptionally valuable.    The Gold-Lipped Oyster is only found in the South Seas and their growth time spans from 20 to 24 months.  

This confirmed to me that often God’s Hidden Gems are in the most difficult to access places.

This is my prayer today for His Hidden Church.

The Glorious and often overlooked people of God who live in the most remote  places on this earth yet, they are God’s emerging Bride for Christ. 

Peace!   Grace! and Love! for All His People everywhere and a special prayer for His Holy Ones in the South Sea Islands.    a-men.

 

 

 

About Faye

I m a wife, mother and grandmother. I have always enjoyed writing even from an early age. My book Beyond the Ashes has been written as a labour of love. All the characters are real to me and their story needed to be told. As a Christian my desire is to write General Fiction stories about real people but Hope and a desire for 'better' will always be part of the journey. I have had several short stories published over the years and moderate success in writing competitions. I realized as I was thinking today (30/01/15) that perhaps I should add here that I have had life experiences of many valley times but also many mountain top experiences. I can understand and be beside anyone who finds their life in tatters because I have 'been' there. Of course as I have got older as well there have been the added sorrows of losing not only older family members but also one by one finding the dearest of friends and the ones of greatest support and care also dying. On the site of rich mountains has been my certainty of the value of marriage and how grateful I am that after loss and sadness I made a happy and long-lasting marriage commitment. The one who was my best friend back then is still my best friend 45 years later. Beyond the Ashes touches upon the POWER of LOVE when folk can forget about their own personal 'feelings' and reach out in LOVE to a desperate and broken person.
