PRECIOUS THINGS ARE HIDDEN
Two young ladies arrived at a church
wearing clothes that were revealing their
body parts.
Here is what the pastor told them:
He took a good look at them and made them
sit. Then he said something that, they might
never forget in their life.
He looked at them straight in the eyes and
said, "ladies, everything that God made
valuable in this world is well covered and
hard to see, find or
get.
1. Where do you find diamonds? Deep down
in the ground, covered and
protected.
2. Where do you find pearls? Deep down at
the bottom of the ocean,
covered up and protected in a beautiful shell.
3. Where do you find gold? Way down in the
mine, covered over with
layers of rock and to get them, you have to
work hard and dig deep
down to get them.
He looked at them with serious eyes and said,
"Your body is sacred and unique".
"You are far more precious than
gold,diamonds and pearls, and you should be
covered too."
So he added that, if you keep your treasured
mineral just like gold, diamond and pearls,
deeply covered up, a reputable mining
organization with the requisite machinery
will fly down and conduct years of extensive
exploration.
First, they will contact your government
(family), sign professional contracts
(wedding) and mine you professionally (legal
marriage). But if you leave your precious
minerals uncovered on the surface of the
earth, you always attract a lot of illegal miners
to come and mine you illegally.
Everybody will just pick up their crude
instruments and think they can dig you.
Keep your bodies deeply covered so that they
invite professional miners to chase you.
Do you not know that your body is a temple
of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you
have received from God? You are not your
own; you were bought with a price.
Corinthians 6:19-20.
