From the book Captivating by John&Stasi Eldridge "Jesus said, "Do not throw your pearls to pigs," (Matt, 7:6). By this we don't think he was calling some people pigs. He was saying, "Look---be careful that you do not give something precious to someone who, at best, cannot recognize its beauty, or at worst, will trample on it." Consider your feminine heart and beauty your treasure, your pearls. A woman can test and see if a man is willing to move in a good direction by offering a taste of what is available with her if he does. She does not give everything in a moment. As God does, she allures and waits to see what he will do." God waits to see what we will do once He invites us. He allures us to become closer to Him. Sometimes we miss that opportunity or choose to ignore it. We may end up giving away our beauty and soul of our hearts. Both men and women. However, God knows what beauty we are capable of and what we may offer the world. His world.
