I pick a pearl of wisdom,
From God’s treasury,
And marvel at the many ways,
Its beauty speaks to me.
As I ponder on the Word,
My spirit glows within,
To know God loves the sinner,
Although He hates the sin.
I place my pearl of wisdom,
With the others in my soul,
And make myself a promise,
To reflect on it once more.
Next day at quiet time alone
With God, I realise,
I thought not once about the pearl,
I had so highly prized.
Although I did not think about
The Word that I had read,
I pray I lived its truth in all
I said and did instead.
Myra D'Souza / 13.6.1999
