Daily Nugget

     Wednesday, April 3rd, 2013.  Today's cherished Nugget from guest blogger Pastor Bill.

Because the Hungarian crown had been kept abroad for twenty-three years, there were few who knew it well. When it was returned, some said it was not the original crown at all; therefore, the Lord Chief Justice was sent to inspect it. He was able to identify it by a tiny crack in one of the sapphires. If the crown had not been slightly damaged, it would have been impossible to identify it correctly. Sometimes our failures and disappointments, the things that damage us, serve a useful purpose.

We each get bumps and bruises along the road of life. While some people see the imperfections, the owners see them as marks of ownership.  In 2 Corinthians 4:16-17 the apostle Paul says, “For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.”

God, thank You for our trials that bring us closer to You. Amen.
