“Did you know….An oyster that has not been wounded in any way does not produce pearls? A pearl is a healed wound. Pearls are a product of pain, the result of a foreign or unwanted substance entering the oyster, such as a parasite or a grain of sand. The inside of an oyster shell is a shiny substance called “nacre.” When a grain of sand enters, the nacre cells go to work and cover the grain of sand with layers and more layers to protect the defenseless body from the oyster. As a result, a beautiful pearl is formed! The more pearls, the more valuable… God never allows pain without a purpose. What if your greatest ministry to others comes out of your greatest hurt ? The hard things we may be going through now are really nothing in comparison to the glory that will be revealed in us later. (Romans 8:17-18)” -author unknown
