He Is Making A Diamond Out Of You

"God can restore what is broken and change it into something amazing. All you need is faith."
Joel 2:25

 Maybe today, something in your life seems broken. It seems like it is all falling apart, and whether that be a relationship, a job, just your overall life, or maybe just you, there is something that I want to tell you. There is a piece of good news that you, my friend, will be happy to hear.
 So you see, God does some of His best work with the broken things that come to Him. Think about it this way; When there is a piece of coal, a dirty, somewhat broken piece of rock, the miners take that little piece of coal, and when it is put under enough pressure, that little piece of broken rock can turn into a diamond.
 So do you see? This is what God is doing with us! He is taking us in times of our brokenness. In times when we feel like our lives our falling apart, and He invites us into His arms. He has His arms spread wide open waiting for you to come running to Him. But here's the thing. There is a step that we have to take. See, when you feel like something in your life, or maybe just your life all around, is falling apart, you can't mope around in it.You can't go through life with a bitter attitude, a negative outlook, and talk about your brokeness all the time. But instead, you need to stand up straight, hold your chin up, and walk with a confidence that says that God is changing you. He is causing this situation to make you better. He is making a diamond out of you! And when you do this, you are going to see how God takes that pressure, and that brokenness, and how He shapes it into something beautiful, shining, and priceless.
