Grapes, Diamonds and Olives

 I ran across the following in Pinterest today and wanted to share a quick word with you about it


We are all crushed at times. Sometimes under so much pressure we feel we are just going to blow a gasket if we don't get some relief.

And it is true as this little poem says about grapes diamonds, and olives.

It says to "trust the process." Which is also true. But it misses one important point that I want to respectfully share about it.

And that is, while we are going through those crushing times, yes, it is an opportunity to be transformed, but the only real transformation that we want is through Jesus Christ.

Anything less, is not the best that he has for us. And sometimes may not even be good at all for us.

It is through him that we can trust the process. Because it can get us through to the other side and work a miracle in our lives.

“Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.” Psalm 37:5

Have a blessed evening, Friends. Thanks for coming by.
