Real Gold

Real Gold

There was time in my life when I was looking for love in the wrong places because of past hurts and low self-esteem. However, as I go through this journey of life God gave me these two words as I was having some quality time with him.  The two words were Real Gold then he said that I am just as valuable as pure gold.  So I began to reflect on what gold is referred to in society and when individuals connect gold with money. However, I God said that you have something more important to offer then money that is your personality, your character and the talents that I have given you.  You are a valuable asset to the Kingdom of God.  So I went to the bible and in Rev 3:18 I it reads as follows “counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.”  (KJV)This scripture simply is saying that God created gold and silver for a purpose. So as it is in the spirit it is in the natural when God created us he designs us to have purpose and destiny! So just like gold, we had to go through a process to get to the best quality to be seen as pure gold and not fool’s gold. God started showing me through all the heartache, and rejection that I have went through over the years that he was refining me so that would get to a point where I would be able to share with others that GOD can and he will heal you from any broken bridges it just takes a time of yielding to him.  But during the process you cannot take any shortcuts because if you do you will not be pure and you do not want anything to hinder you from getting to the destiny that GOD has for you according to Jeremiah 29:11.  So as you are going through your process, I am going to tell you that it is not always going to feel good because you still have to keep moving forward so you will not become handicapped emotionally. You may ask how can somebody become handicapped emotionally well I am here to testify that you can become emotionally handicapped by not allowing yourself to feel the hurt , the insecurity  and the church hurt , by placing a wall up that nobody can get in .  I did it for so long that it became natural for me not to cry when someone hurt me because I did not want to be seen as vulnerable to anyone. I was in a crowd of people but felt alone and that is the most horrible feeling in the world. Then one day I  was ministered to by my Apostle  Debra Giles she began to tell me that it was okay to show my real emotions that  crying was a way to release the hurt !  She  said  one phrase that stuck with If you can Take it  You can Make it.  Back then it was a slogan for her life but I took it for myself.  I began to see that I am a warrior for Christ that I am a fighter .  So I am going to pass that to you although you feel like you  can not take anything else going wrong in your life know  that you can because GOD has equipped you to fight and to overcome every obstacle in your life.
