Despised Jewelry (01/11/04)

It's placed at the natural Museum in France, a collection of special 78 giant crystals. The collection was disputed by the greatest museums in America, Europe and Asia. The collection includes the biggest pieces of citrine, blue topaz, blue amazonite and morganita. All these stones come from Brazil. They were discovered in Governador Valadares, MG. The salesmen got tired of offering these stones to Brazilian institutions, who treated them with disdain.

It's easy for us to criticize the disdain of the authorities towards these gems. But let's see how many time Christians disdain jewels.

1. When we miss the services of the church and stay at home sleeping, visiting friends or relatives, fixing the car or cooking.
2. When we don't participate financially in the support of the Work of the Lord, spending 100 % in our own benefit and losing the privilege of helping the greatest work that is being done in the face of the earth, to win souls for Christ.
3. When we merely come in and leave the sanctuary. We disdain the gift that the Lord gave us to use in His Work. It's impossible that you as a believer, to feel no pleasure in doing something in the church.
4. As we need bread for the body, we also need the Word of God and prayer for our spirit.

Make a resolution to God, to not disdain these jewels for 2004 as well as other precious jewels that you can find only in the Kingdom of God.
