A Riddle For The Outcast and Lonely

There is a special section in the store just for these items. They are often set apart from the others. The majority of customers do not buy them, or even look for them. When you do look for them, you can look very hard and be very excited when you find it.  Sometimes they have special packaging. They fluctuate in quantity, you never know what you will find.You feel like you got a deal when you buy it. Often, it is what you can afford.


      So, is it discount merchandise at the grocery store, or a rare gem at a jeweler's?

  Maybe you feel you are cheap , that no one searches for you. That you are weird. And you find yourself thinking you are a malformed item on a discount shelf. But perhaps the truth is very different.


God refines us though fire, and the result is something more valuable than fine gold. He sets us apart so we are no longer common, we are precious.

But we are costly, and few will pay for something rare when they can get something shiny and pretty for much cheaper. 

At what cost to them? And yet, it is their loss, and they don't even bother to find out why. Our packaging it different. We have something to guard. There's security, laser lines and
pressure plates like a rare jewel in a museum. And we don't have to  apologize for our boundaries when they protect something precious.

heheheheh

Few have the skill to navigate those boundaries, because few appreciate the value, and even less are willing to put in the effort to get it.






Don't apologize for your boundaries when you protect something precious. Don't worry that you are hard to find, that God puts you in the back of the store. He's protecting you, he knows you are valuable, and only those who know the high cost can have you.

For we are far above rubies.
