Jasper is one of the few precious stones that contains impurities, which prevent any light from passing through it. But we’re made pure so we can see His face and feel His embrace.
Like a mirror, if we don’t honor the honesty of God’s Word when we see our faults and flaws reflected in it, we’ll get distracted and forget what we saw.
This whole world is in desperate need of the anti-venom of the King of the kings of the cobras. Otherwise, we’re victims of every sin, that ultimately becomes the deadly venom of our own demise.
We weren’t merely created, we were fashioned for His family, the Body of Christ. And just as an arm can’t fulfill “its own special work” if it’s dismembered, neither can we.
