How ironic that the Saviour Who was born to a carpenter's family was laid in a wooden crib in a stable on His way to a wooden cross on a hill.
I was asked to speak on the Pearl of Great Price, which is not the usual Christmas verse. However, after meditating on this parable over the past couple of weeks, I've come to see just how appropriate it is. The Merchant who gave up all that He had for the Pearl is a beautiful picture of Christ Who sacrificed everything in order to purchase His church. In fact, it is the reason He came...Christmas!
These bookmarks will be given to each of the ladies who attend as a reminder of how the Lord humbled Himself in order to raise us up.
