Why a pearl?

Matthew 13:45-46 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls: Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

A jewler friend of ours sent us his beautiful interpretation of Jesus’ parable of the pearl and we wanted to share it with you.

In Matthew 13, we see that a merchant sold all that he had to purchase a single pearl. But why, of all things, a pearl? As a jeweler, I would question the choice the Lord made — choosing to leave the Father’s side for a pearl instead of what I would think has much greater significance, the much coveted diamond. You may know that the diamond is graded in value according to the 4 C’s, Cut, Color, Clarity & Carat-weight. The answer to my pondering was right there! The diamond receives a substantial portion of its value from the way a person cuts it — the work of man’s hand! Interestingly, the only natural gemstone that has more value when it is found than when men finish with it is the PEARL!

In the same way, we can add nothing to the work of Salvation! God has paid the price for us in full — and a tremendous price it was. The God of glory, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords left all the splendor of Heaven to claim this pearl. And He gained it by paying a price that was far more precious than any of us could pay.

Sometimes we get so busy and we don’t take time out consider this incredible work of God in our lives. He has bought us with a price. We are fully paid, fully ransomed, fully redeemed! We are the pearls of great desire! Let’s walk in that victory today!

Your family in the Lord with much agape love,

    This is the answer to my prayers, I just know it is. When was the last time something came into your life that answered your prayers? When it happens you just know it instantly. And the Glory to God just pours out of you. I have come across a company that is almost all Christian, “those who are not are quickly becoming” that provides the answer to most peoples prayers. The duality problem of Finances and Health. You see, to solve both problems at once you first must find the common ground between both issues and then a solution that fits both. God has answered my prayers and I have found just that. Praise God! With God`s help, this company is breaking generational curses all over the world, (has business in over 60 countries) and I am so blessed to have this opportunity to tell people about it. The company is called Tahition Noni International and what the Noni plant is known for is boosing the Immune and Cardiovascular systems to a point where things like the Swine Flu just bounce off us. This is one of God`s superfruits and little known preventative measures we can all take to withstand what the world is about to be bombarded with. We can stand firm in our faith when people all around us still refuse to seek God. And so HIS judgement is upon them. But as for the righteous his word promises that although one thousand may fall at your left hand and ten thousand at your right, the Lord will deliver you. And not only that but, in these last few years of man`s self rule there is an awesome transferance of wealth, from the wicked to the righteous, and it is my belief this company has a perfect part in this plan. Not only for the benefit of his chosen but for the seeds to be planted by this financial windfall, to do his will and help his prophetic word become reality. That what it is, I must let you know that T.N.I`s compensation package is immense. It offers Residual and Passive income, Bonuses, paid vacations and Business trips, all first class and five star accomodations, an automobile allowance, wholesale products, an automated web site and back office access. ( The Lord wants us to prosper). This is the compensation plan for all Independent Product Consultants, which I personally am always hiring. Not only is the benefit package extremely generous, the step scale is setup so that team members HAVE to help you advance, or they can not advance themselves. This is the step provided that eliminates greed, yet ensures that we help each other. And in following this advancement system T.N.I. had already created over 200 documented millionaires. But I must let you know the Lord NEVER allows a blessing without planting a seed in faith first. And faith without works is dead so in realization of these two seed faith principles, know that you will be asked to participate in a case auto ship (CAS)enrollment. But, when you drink this amazing juice and realize it`s healing properties you will have absolutely no doubt this is one of God`s Great Gifts. And it is also in his plan that you drink this juice, to help your immune and cardiovascular systems, to prepare for what we are about to encounter, thus the reason for case autoship enrollment. And I know I don`t have to convince you but, let me tell you that Tahitian Noni International is the only Noni producer in the world with Patented products, 27 patents and over 100 more applied for. And the only one listed in the Physicians Desk Reference. I could go on and on about this but I really do not need to.
