i splurged...

God has been teaching me a lot about my worth throughout the past couple weeks and a while ago i came across a necklace that i fell in love with. the amazing thing about it is that it falls directly in line with the two scriptures He has given me this season.

now i normally do not splurge on jewelry or even wear necklaces for that matter, but i'm super excited to have this simple reminder of the scriptures to wear daily.

the first verse i posted a couple days ago here...

the second one i have known for a long time, but God revealed a different perspective on it the other night.

The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid again; and from joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.  Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking fine pearls, and upon finding one pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.
Matthew 13:44-46

i had always pictured myself in the man/merchant role having to sacrifice everything for the treasure.  but what if God is the one who gave everything to save me... and i am that fine pearl.

go check out my new necklace here and browse her other beautiful creations!
