Hunter, do you even realize that you are a pearl of Great Price. I am not trying to interpret the parable. I just want to make it clear that I am not starting a conversation on that parable. This is different. I just wanted you to know, Hunter, that you were bought with the greatest price of all. That was the shed blood of Jesus. You are His pearl of Great Price.
No man owns you. You should not allow people to run your life as you wisely see. You gave your life to Jesus Christ to be owned by Him. It is He whom you want to please because you are now His pearl of Great Price.
