Here is a man who buys and sells things. He is called a 'merchant'. He has a fine fur coat and a felt hat with a floppy feather, its his favourite. The house he lives in is huge,It has five floors and a fish pond in the front garden. The merchant has everything he wants. He has fifteen rooms filled with furniture.He has four freezers full of food, (and three fridges for fizzy drinks.) And there is more money under his mattress than you could ever IMAGINE!!!!! Much more. Yes the merchant has everything he wants. Until...... One day in a shop window he see's something, something special, It's a woderful pearl!! "Five hundred thousand pounds" says the man in the shop. It's even more money than the merchant has under his mattress. But he wants the pearl more than any thing in the world.He hurries home, he has a plan.He sells his fridges full of food, he sells his house, his foutain and his fishpond.He sells his fine fur coat. Butthe flt hat with the floppy feather he keeps. It's his favourite. He borrows a barrowsnd bundles in the money, off to the shop he trundles to buy the pearl. Oh Dear!! He is still six - pounds short. "sell your hat for six-pounds" says the man in the shop. The merchant laughs, He hands the hat and gets the pearl.
HOORAY the pearl is his at last!!!
Jesus says,"God is like the merchants pearl,it cost evrything to know him.
But he is worth anything in the WORLD!!!!
( you know God wants you to LOVE people and you're Family as well as him!!!)
