While the Bible has been documented to be the most-published and most-sold book ever, how many people actually take the time to open, read, and study this precious gift? If we truly believe this Book is from God Himself and contains the Way of salvation, shouldn't we cherish It as the most valuable treasure we could possibly possess? With the help of the Holy Spirit, shouldn't our lives reflect the passion of these priceless Words?

My granddaughter likes to wear a necklace to church, so I gave her a necklace of pearls that my wonderful son-in-law had given me upon returning from the Philippines on business. I explained to her that one day this necklace of pearls would belong to her, making them very special because they came from her Daddy.

This book contains a few of the verses I love to ponder, share, and cherish. They are Pearls that my Heavenly Father gave to me, to you, and to the entire world as a message of His love and forgiveness. I want to share several of these priceless Pearls and share what each means in my life hoping to encourage you to develop your own string of Pearls. May a true passion inspire each of us not only to collect these Pearls but also to share them with the people in our lives who are in need of help and healing. By the power of the Holy Spirit, may our string of Pearls grow into a necklace of Pearls that will sustain our faith now and throughout eternity. By the grace of God, may we pass on this priceless necklace of Pearls to future generations that they may hold God's love letters, the Bible, close to their heart resting secure in His promises now and throughout eternity.
