The writer of @patientlysingle shared this with me yesterday and it really struck a cord in me. 2 weeks and 2 days ago I found my church home and rededicated my life to the Lord. I can't speak for everyone but I know a lot of us have been to that altar so many times we began to loose faith in ourselves. But when we put our faith in the Lord who can do all things you will be amazed. I've felt refreshed and renewed in mind, body, and spirit. Cleansed by the blood and filled with the Holy Spirit. I'm watching God move in my life and change situations I've been struggling with for over 8 years. My heart is filled with the joy of the Lord and I would like to share my journey with whatever ear is willing. We are rare gems to our Heavenly Father, though we may feel like a pile of ore but profitable material can be extracted from ore even though it doesn't look pretty at first glance. Walk with Jesus, talk with him and let him extract the valuable materials from you. Let him reveal your ability to shine. "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." 2 Corinth 2:5 #diamondsandore #thebloodofjesus #refinedandundefined #2corinthians
