A Pearl is a short and easy book to read, but in and through its simplicity is a profound and life-changing message. In just a few pages Margaret Ann Miller relates the grief of her losses and the joys of her accomplishments. She takes you by the hand as she overcomes extreme physical, emotional and spiritual struggles. She exposes the reality of her seemingly idyllic childhood and the lies that she built her life on and had no reason to question. Then she takes hold of your heart and demonstrates the love of Jesus and the difference He made in her life. Most importantly, A Pearl leads you to examine the lies you have believed and may still cling to. It invokes you to analyze your priorities, evaluate your sense of pride, and come face-to-face with all that you take for granted. And then it challenges you to go further and look deeper into Jesus' eyes and ask yourself if you are willing to sell everything for a Pearl of great price.
