Do Not Cast Pearls — Part 2

February 14, 2023

Just as pearls are precious, so is the work of God in the life of a believer. It should be the heart of every Christian to share with others the Word of God and the work He is doing in their lives. But we must recognize that not everyone values these and sees them as treasures. Join Nate and Gabe as they discuss being dependent upon the Lord for His perfect timing in sharing our testimony and God’s Word with others.

A wonderful summation of this command can be found in the story of the prodigal son. There was a season of life where the son would’ve been characterized as “swine“ – he did not value the things of his father. It would have been a waste to try to reason with him. However his loving father waited patiently, and, at the right time, his son was ready to hear the truth and repent. May we be encouraged to pray for those in our lives who are resistant, and to look to the Lord for His perfect timing to share truth.
