Pearls are the foundational piece placed in our spiritual jewelry box. When you dont know what to pray, dont know how to pray, and dont even want to pray, you can open your jewelry box and pull out Pearls. In the same way an oyster covers an irritant in its shell with a substance called nacre, producing a pearl, we can coat the issues in our lives with the nacre of prayer and also produce pearls.

These words are often related to our money, our time, or our service. Pearls takes a step further and shows how giving to God through prayer in five areas enriches your prayer life and draws you into a closer relationship with Him. Pearls is about praying.

His "pearls" of insight and wisdom will help you to better understand our shared predicament as human beings, namely our suffering and mortality, and leverage evidence-based habits to meet your hierarchy of needs for survival, safety, love and belonging, esteem, and self-actualization in the one very short life you have been given. Just as mollusks make pearls in response to irritants, you can use your struggles to create a new and improved version of yourself. In the pages of Pearls, you will find the makings of that metamorphosis. The book features 69 chapters divided into six parts. Read start to finish, it delivers a comprehensive message of hope and healing that begins with birth and ends with death. At the same time, each chapter is written so that it can stand alone as an inspirational message to be revisited or shared with others in need of perspective and encouragement. In Part I, "First Things First," he reviews the roles that nature and nurture play in setting our floors and ceilings, proposes a new twist on the age-old pursuit of happiness and achievement, shares a method for strategic winning, highlights the important role of connection to others, self, and a higher power, and offers a solution to the decision paralysis and self-consciousness that often hinder our progress. Part II, "The Work World," outlines the economic fundamentals of life and the attitudes and actions that maximize one's opportunities for paid employment and success in the workplace. Part III, "Lofty Goals," describes a life that rises above self, the pedestrian and mundane, to pursue aspirational team-based initiatives that lift up and transform entire communities and societies. In Part IV, "Getting Things Done," he writes about the many drivers of consistent productivity, including harnessing realms of energy, identifying and successfully navigating the chapters of life, exercising servant leadership, and engaging the emotions and intellect that drive human decisions and practices. Part V, "Struggles," focuses on the common challenges that impede our ability to claim joy and meaning and the adaptive behaviors that help us to turn our challenges into opportunities for growth. The book concludes with Part VI, "Doctor Stuff," Dr. Chuck's summary of the inescapable aging processes and degenerative changes that define our morbidity and mortality, and his endorsement of the perspectives, intentions, and habits that help us mitigate the sting of death and the finality of the grave.

Book excerpt: Stranded by stormy weather on a small Greek Island, Lutheran Bishop Emeritus Martin Lonnebo created the Pearls of Life concept to guide his own prayer. He shared the idea with others and was amazed at their response and their stories of ever deepening prayer. The bracelet is made of quality glass and ceramic beads, strung on a soft elastic cord and imported from a fairtrade manufacturer in India. The book describes the meaning of each pearl and how it may be used in personal prayer. There are eighteen pearls, twelve round and six oblong. For example: - The largest golden pearl reminds us that we are not alone: God is supporting us, accepting us, loving us. - The six oblong pearls are for silence, for shutting out that which distracts. - The small shimmering white pearl reminds us that we are created in God's image. - The large white pearl reminds us that we are forgiven. Suitable for use by youth and adults, congregations may adapt it for use in confirmation classes, study groups, and retreats.

Download or read book Pearls of Wisdom written by Barbara Bush and published by Twelve. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! In this "sage, valuable volume" (Publishers Weekly), First Lady Barbara Bush shares the best of her adviceto family, staff, and close friends. First Lady Barbara Bush was famous for handing out advice. From friends and family to heads of state and Supreme Court justices, and certainly to her staff, her advice ranged from what to wear, what to say or not say, and how to live your life. She especially loved visiting with students of all ages, from kindergartners to college graduates. When she turned 80, she owned up to all her advice-giving and explained it this way: After all, in 80 years of living, I have survived 6 children, 17 grandchildren, 6 wars, a book by Kitty Kelly, two presidents, two governors, big Election Day wins and big Election Day losses, and 61 years of marriage to a husband who keeps jumping out of perfectly good airplanes. So, it's just possible that along the way I've learned a thing or two. At the end of the day, she taught all of us some valuable lessons. As First Lady, she made a point of cuddling a baby with AIDS and hugging a young man who was HIV positive and whose family had rejected him, showing us by example the importance of compassion and the myth of fear. As a mother, she made sure we all knew that your children must come first, and one of the most important things you can do is to read to them. As a friend and mentor, she showed that you had to be true to yourself, and even at the end of her life, she taught us how to die with grace. Full of Barbara Bush's trademark wit and thoughtfulness, Pearls of Wisdom is a poignant reflection on life, love, family, and the world by one of America's most iconic -- and beloved -- public figures.
