Do you know the story of the pearl?

Do you know the story of the pearl? It starts from a sand grain that gets into an oyster. To ease the irritation, the oyster coats it & transforms it into a shiny pearl. The pearl's story is ours too. We can be ugly, rough, unattractive. But the passing of time transforms us, coupled with our openness to life. We are created each moment, each day in ways unseen, unnoticed, even unfelt. And we are created into something beautiful & precious in God's eyes.
