Victorious PEARL

We are all aware that each pearl is formed by accident as an oysters internal response to a wound caused by an irritant such as a grain of sand. Resources of repair rushes to the injured area. The final result is a lustrous - pearl. Something beautiful is created that could have been impossible without the wound.
Like the oysters story, our life can also be like a pearl. We become successful by necessity. Hard times strengthened our goals in life making us better persons. It is how we react to a crisis that matters.
When Paul was struck blind and fell from his horse, he must have felt much pain and humiliation. But the situation did not stop him from moving on and he became Christ strong defender. All kind of pains and trials can be turned into learning experiences wherein we grow stronger as we survive crisis. How we come out of the crisis will depend entirely on our response to the situation.
