Grief Bites: A New Approach to Growing Through Grief

60天中的第13天

Think about a time you have seen a beautiful diamond.

Did you know that diamonds become beautiful only through great heat, pressure, and transformation? When the weight of the overlying rock begins to bear down, that is when a diamond grows.

One of the most gorgeous diamonds in the world to go through this trying process of transformation and growth is The Hope Diamond.

The Hope Diamond is a rare, exquisite, highly prized, beautiful diamond. Most diamonds never develop into the beauty, strength, and uniqueness of the Hope Diamond because they couldn't survive the incredibly high heat and pressure it took to form and carry them up to the surface.

In the same way, God may be allowing you to go through intense pressure, heat, challenges, and discomfort because He deeply desires to be the One to carry you up to the surface from the pit of grief, so you can offer hope to a hurting world and shine brilliantly for Him and His glory!

With grief, we are given an important choice...do we trust God and allow Him to carry us upward to the surface in our times of grief, and become beautiful diamonds of great strength and brilliance...OR...do we turn away from the Source that has the ability to lift us up, staying stagnant or complacent in our grief, turning our hearts into weakened graphite?

Grief definitely knocks a person down, and grief recovery definitely takes time...but we all have the hope of God lifting us from the miry pits of grief.

Just as millions of people have gone to see and marvel at The Hope Diamond, the world truly marvels at seeing someone who endures incredible hardships yet still radiates brilliant joy.

Those who have experienced deep grief have a very special calling and divine purpose in life...a calling to help others who are going through a similar trial.

One day, you are going to be an absolute jewel...a Diamond of Hope...to someone who will be going through a similar heartache!

Allow your heart and life to be flexible, moldable, and usable by God.
God created you to shine!
