Wake the faith up
The Kimberly diamond mine was for decades the largest diamond mine in the world… it was named the big hole… so big you could see it from space… and it was dug out by human hands…. but the back story is quite crazy….
Kimberly diamond mine in Africa is the largest diamond field in the world. The man who at first owned the land had it as a farm. he sold his farm to go out and try to find diamonds... if he could find only one diamond he knew his family would be set due to how impoverished they were. For ten years he went out and looked everywhere... even in other countries and finally was so distraught after 10 years killed himself.
The man who he sold the farm to was out one day and saw an unusual rock in the stream on his property. He took it in to the hut and put it on a shelf. Later that week a missionary came by and started to talk to him and noticed the rock... it was a nice size. He asked the man where did you get this rock? The man said out back in my little stream. They went out back and looked in the stream and the missionary said "before I was a missionary I was a jeweler, and this rock contains the rarest of the rare diamonds. Worth millions... and your whole back yard is littered with them.
The other man wasted his life looking for what he had right there at his home. How many in todays world are looking for a bigger house, better spouse and bustier blouse... and you will look back and realize I had happiness at home if I was only willing to look hard enough and do the work.
2 Corinthians 9:8-15 NLT
And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others. As the Scriptures say, “They share freely and give generously to the poor. Their good deeds will be remembered forever.” For God is the one who provides seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, he will provide and increase your resources and then produce a great harvest of generosity in you. Yes, you will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous.
