The many faceted Diamond



  As His Light pierces through I behold His grandeur. I gaze upon the cut of the Rock, the sharp edge and the smooth. The sharp is like the strong mountain of Justice, no bending or bowing as the great tempest blows, steady and strong it holds, so majestic in splendor and so magnificent to behold. As I peer upon the smooth part of the Rock, I behold the gentle breeze that blows, a bowing of the knee, burdens lifted, oh how sweet is the surrender as peace sweeps across the soul. Looking deep, no shadow of  turning as His beams of Light dance all around. This glorious Light which magnifies the depths of His Grace, the tenderness of His Mercy toward a penitent heart. Oh the beauty I behold, so pure, unblemished and so perfect. Darkness flees, evil is overwhelmed by the beautiful Light of God. Nothing hinders His majesty. He is undaunted as His perfect Light overtakes the wholeness of creation. He is so splendid and glorious, and one day will be exalted by all.

Time and age so fleeting but a friend indeed, for it will unveil the many facets of God's beautiful character. Jesus, the Diamond, that's been lifted from the dark earth by the hand of God for you and I. We are brought forth into the Light of our Creator who makes us beautiful in His time, until we are that beautiful faceted diamond created in the image of His Son!

Light breaking forth!

Have you ever been studying God's Word and suddenly there is a quickening in your spirit and you have understanding that gives you deepe...
