Enduring Pearls

Words…they echo through eternity.  The spoken word has eternal consequences.  The written word is just as permanent.  I am well aware that the words I type now will likely last beyond my fragile body.  
 

That should be a good enough reason to not start a blog.

But here we are.  God has led me away from time-wasting and led me to spend time writing. Husband thought the name of this blog should include “pearls.”  Knowing how he loves to see me wear pearls, I smiled and took that to heart.  We must’ve tried a hundred different words with “pearls” and had no success until I read Hebrews 12:1, “Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us…”
Endurance…  Enduring Pearls.

It’s available.  Husband likes it.  The name is nothing more than a reminder to me to write of things that will last and to run with endurance.  As Husband pointed out, I’ll often be writing from God’s Word – and therein lies enduring treasure.
