Diamonds From the Rough

"Diamonds from the Rough."

A diamond is formed through pressure and pressure my
beautiful sisters you surely have been through.
The Storms, Trials, Tribulations, Tests, and that which satan
has sent your way you have had to Overcome too.
The Disappointments, Depressions, and Disasters
the Heartaches, the Heart breaks and the Hurt that only Yah could Heal.
The Pain that felt like Punishment the crying and the sleepless
nights your life seemed like a Nightmare turned real.
Had many of you not knowing which way to go all because of the
boys that were sent by satan to disrupt your life.
But all the pressures you have been through have certainly prepared you
for the mission of compassion of being a favoured man's wife.
Diamonds are formed under pressure, pressure that forms the diamond
over a period of time, through the Storms you are formed this way.
From the darkness you came when you did not know Yah, now He is your
Father and He dwells within your temple to stay.
All the Troubles of our past and what we are Tested through
make up the Living Testimonies that we are, that we live everyday.
We are made through the hurt we've felt, made Ministers to many
the word in due season is the word they hear us say.
You are a perfected Diamond from the rough times you
had to go through that you had to endure.
Scripture says Without spot or blemish perfect in spirit
the stresses have served to make you pure.
You don't need anyone to define who you are your Heavenly Father
sent our Brother down and you were bought with a price.
He paid it all through the suffering many of us feel now scripture says
as He suffered we shall suffer, I can tell you the Storms ain't nothing nice.
Overcoming through His spirit is the key, we are to be still let Him have
His perfect Will and Way in us.
We will become pure as Gold at the end of this journey and given a crown
scripture says Kings and Priests, His word you can trust.
My sisters, the Most High's Princess Daughters you've
been through what I describe as to Hell and back.
The spousal abuses, the domestic violence it may have been through men
but the devil launched the attack.
All the pressures that destroy anyone lesser made you a Diamond in all your beauty
you are a prize for your husband made perfect by all the Hurt and Pain.
Through the pressure that is placed on the coal over time emerges a rare
exquisite diamond, from the pressure your true beauty does remain.

you are diamonds my sisters,
