I have been fractured, broken into so many pieces I didn’t think I’d ever be able to be put together in any semblance of wholeness every again.
And this is how I know there is a God~
Only our Creator can take broken
and transform it to unbreakable!
Inconceivable Love that flows through the ability of God
such Determination! such Eternal Purposes
intruding into my brokenness
and painstakingly
taking my fractures and weaknesses
and reconstructing my essence to resemble the facets of a diamond:
beautiful
fiery
and UNBREAKABLE.
The word “diamond” comes from the Greek word- “adamas’” meaning- unbreakable!
I am- You are a “diamond” in the rough- still being formed and shaped by the Master’s hand.
There is a component of diamonds that measures “toughness”.
Diamonds are so “tough” they resist breakage from any form of forceful impact or pressure. They are TRANSPARENT- the “purest” and most “concentrated” mineral found on earth! Oh the depth of symbolism illustrated for us! To be completely transparent before God, have the pollution of our spirits replaced with purity AND to be in our most concentrated form- not a diluted version of ourself!!! (REMEMBER- that’s just the beginning process on earth- in eternity- that beauty and strength will be culminated perfectly in body, mind, and spirit!)
If we could see the potential that God sees.
Selah~pause & consider that 🙂
Maybe, then we could look at someone who is mentally impaired and see the diamond within. Perhaps we could look at physically challenged people in a wheelchair, or someone who is verbally non-communicative, or people with severe brain damage, or autism, or even ourselves!
I can’t say this truth emphatically enough!
We are all in the same place-
broken and limited-
UNTIL GOD STEPS IN AND BEGINS TO FORM AND SHAPE!
It doesn’t happen overnight-
and it’s a very intense process.
But a Diamond- unbreakable- is the result.
