“Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a merchant searching for fine pearls.  When he finds a pearl of great price, he goes and sells all that he has and buys it.” Matthew 13:45-46. St. Thomas Aquinas said, “Grant me, O Lord my God, a mind to know you, a heart to seek you, wisdom to find you, conduct pleasing to you, faithful perseverance in waiting for you, and a hope of finally embracing you. Amen.” Let us pray, Lord, we don’t see all at once this pearl that is Your kingdom.  But bit by bit we see, we must be all in; there is no half measure with You.  We are Yours, and we want to serve, bearing Christ to the world. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
