A diamond,

Is made in a fire of over a million degrees Celsius.

Like her mind made firm,

His word burned and infused into her soul.

He has fulfilled all His promises to her.


She is a diamond,

Formed under immense pressure.

Her bones made strong,

She will withstand the storm until the morning.


She is a diamond,

She has been fused together.

The many years have created her beautiful lattices,

In Christ she has been brought to her fulness.


She is a diamond,

Formed in the dark depths of the earths cratons.

Yet she shine as brightly as any star,

She is the image of a lamp in a high place.


She is a diamond,

Something precious and unreachable that has been brought forth.

Through heat and violent force,

A place to which she must one day return.

A kingdom of diamonds that shines like the heavens.


She was a diamond,

Found hidden in a xenolith in the earth.

Polished over time by her Creators Love,

Perfected by the crushing and washing clean.

She lived the life of a diamond.


She is a diamond,

Chosen apart and cut into her unique design.

Though her heart bled from every cut by her makers hand,

She was more beautiful for it.

A diamond shaped by the force of her tear covered strength.


She is a diamond,

Sanded and polished to her perfection.

The old self peeled away,

And she shone in brilliance under His light.

Enabling her Makers glory to shine brighter still.


We are diamonds,

Set in gold.

Placed exactly where we were meant to be,

Upon the crown, of the King of Kings,

To Him let all glory be.


Ezekiel 28: 13 

"You were in Eden, the garden of God; Every precious stone was your covering: The ruby, the topaz and the diamond; The beryl, the onyx and the jasper; The lapis lazuli, the turquoise and the emerald; And the gold, the workmanship of your settings and sockets, Was in you. On the day that you were created. They were prepared.
