Merry Christmas ❤️
I watched a Christmas service and the performance of a Christmas musical play called Pearl of Great Price.. it's Jesus, right?
I figured.
And then I found myself swept up in emotion as the story wove a tale of a sailor who sought his fortune on the sea, and found, first, the pearl of great price was his life when he almost lost it.
When he came back to his family home after many years, humbled and having failed in his search for fortune, he found his father had passed, leaving him a letter. The father wrote before dying that his son was the father's pearl of great price, and the father had spent his life fishing in the sea lanes hoping to find him.
And I understood Jesus' words so much better, and God's love, more than I ever had...
We are the pearl of great price.
God paid everything to have us. And we diminish what He paid - the Son - if we cannot learn to value not only what He created, but then paid everything for:
YOU ❤️
You are so LOVED this Christmas!! ✨️
