A Diamond Stone

A friend of mine shared how tremendously God blessed him at work. He got a company letter out of surprise. He was selected to be the Model Employee!

I remember he did not really enjoy the work at the beginning. However, this guy embraced a winning attitude and a fighting spirit, deep in his heart, he wanted to conquer it. He wanted to be the BEST! He meant it and he really did it. He was humble enough to put down his pride to ask and learn from the people around him. And most importantly, he kept praying and praying to God, all the time.

A few month ago, he became the Top Sales Person of The Month! He made it, for the first step. And, now, he is the MODEL EMPLOYEE! Can you imagine all these things happen in less than a year, since the first day he was with this company? Such a big leap cannot be made without God. Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. I have seen how much he has given up for God. He made a response to God, "I'm willing". He picked the stone amongst the gold, and it turned out to be a diamond stone. In its rough state, a diamond stone is unremarkable in appearance. But it is more precious than gold after proper cut and perfect symmetry. We can never out give God, when God bless, the floodgate of heaven is going to open until we have no room to store.

God Bless!
