44 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
45 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls, 46 who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it.
Matthew 13:44 &45
I sit in my little St. Louis apartment tonight full of almost completely bare walls, closets, and shelves...but a heart full of joy. Yesterday, I had an open house where I sold my furniture, clothes, artwork, and jewelry to friends and family. It turned out better than I could have hoped. One by one, each person came and gave blessings, donations, and love with each purchase... and today I sit a grateful woman.
Thank you Lord for these precious relationships that you have given me,
Thank you God that I go from St. Louis with blessing and favor from friends and family
and...
Thank you God for the pearl of great price, and that no matter how bare my walls are...it's gonna be worth it all!
