The Pearl Poem

I just found this poem and that it was so great about becoming the women God created us to be.

The Pearl

In every oyster there lies the ability
to produce something rare.
Truth like a grain of sand will produce
the pearl that is hidden there.
Young woman, you are often mocked and scorned,
and told you never should have been born.
You want to run away, to hide your hurt.
Your heart is wounded, bleeding and torn.
God makes not mistakes:
every life is special,
every life is planned.
Seeds can sprout in sand.
Open yourself up to the Spirit of God,
grow in grace and maturity,
be what He wants you to be.
Your beauty, your strength lies deep within you.
Young woman, young girl,
open yourself up ot God.
Allow Him to reveal your pearl.
