There is a lesson, a treasure, a jewel, and an opportunity for growth in everything we go through. Even in the bad things that happens to us, there are what I call "jewels" or "hidden treasures." Yes, in the most horrible experiences in life, hidden treasures

But who can find them? How do we discover them when all we can see is the hurt and pain of the trials and tribulations we have faced? By reminding ourselves that we are the apple of God's eyes and everything that was meant to harm us, God will turn it around for our good. He will give us "the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, that we may know that the Lord, called us by name "

We are a marvelous work, a holy people, set apart, predestined, made in the image of, created by, loved by God. But oftentimes, that is not how we view ourselves We have spent too many years wandering in the wilderness of shame, defeat, heartache, and pain. It is time to come out and unearth all the treasures that the enemy has stolen from you.
