| Interests | The world-renowned Hope Diamond has not always been revered like it is today! After traveling from the depths of the earth, it was downsized by more than half its original size, stolen under cover of night during the French Revolution, and thought to be cursed. It has been hocked, sold as costume jewelry, worn by a Great Dane, and played with by soldiers in games of catch! Finally, when being donated to the Smithsonian, it was mailed in a brown paper bag through the US Postal Service!!! But now!!! This rarest of jewels sits on a pedestal behind bullet proof glass while 7 million people from all over the world flock to admire it each year! Have you ever felt like the Hope Diamond? Used and abused, betrayed and abandoned, belittled and disrespected? There is HOPE!!! If you place your trust in Jesus Christ, there will be a day when He will take His nail-scarred hand and tenderly wipe every tear from your eye! No more death! No more sorrow! There will be peace and joy forevermore in Paradise! God sees you as the treasure you are! You are the apple of God’s eye! Even when you are chased by those who seek your life, you are safe in the care of the LORD your God, secure in His treasure pouch! 1 Sam. 25:29 NLT Wow!! I can’t think of a greater place of honor! In God Almighty’s treasure pouch! Not a more safe, more secure place in this world!!!! If you believe in your heart Jesus is Lord and confess with your mouth Christ has been raised from the dead, you will be saved! Romans 10:9 |
