A personal prayer after reading the parable of The Pearl today:

Show me Yourself through my marriage, finances, getting rid of cars, walking my dog, my sexuality, my time management, my talks with others Lord. Keep meeting me in every area of my life. Make everything The Pearl. Let Your Kingdom come in all of my life Lord. Make all my friendships sacred Lord. Make our lands sacred to, and all we do.
Help me to meet my wife where she is at in You, and she where I am at in You Lord! Be our intimacy Lord. Let that extend to all friends Lord. Let it be so. Enter in, as I enter into You. Make everything that Pearl Lord, You sowed in my heart. Even these words.
May Your Word enter these words Lord. Embody my writings, impregnate these words with Your Word. And help me to savor listening, as much as talking Lord—the breath space between the lines. Receiving as much as giving, in and out of time. Let me give from that treasure you bought the whole field for! The treasure i am to You Lord. You are my pearl, and I am yours Lord.
