Diamond's In Our Day's is a devotional that will lift you up and inspire you to sparkle. You may feel like an ugly lump of coal. But like a diamond you are beloved, brilliant and beautiful. Our Heavenly Father is our Master Artisan. He created us and desires that every life experience gives us dimension. We are multi-faceted. There are millions of diamonds but only one you. Though you may have wintery seasons when you feel more like a forgotten lump of coal, know that you are cherished and infinitely valuable.

In our faith expedition through the pages of this book, we will discover how God works gut-wrenching things into gorgeous, glorious things so that you and I can emerge more beautiful with spirits that radiate hope. Working as a pharmacist, I see sickness daily. Honestly, it makes me question: Are there deeper spiritual truths that can be mined from physical trials? How can we overcome pain, even when it's invisible to doctors who question our symptoms? How can we be more than conquerors when cancer threatens to knock us down and scares us silly? What can gluten possibly teach us about grace? And how can facing Lupus head-on prompt us not to fear? Might the plaque on our teeth encourage us to brush pride from our lives? What does Tylenol® have to teach us about living out truth? Might dyslexia help us to see sin and circumstances more clearly? Might the common cold help us better understand Christ's uncommon gift of grace? Could our foot falling asleep lead us to walk toward others living and giving more generously? How do we make better food choices and what do a handful of potato chips have in common with a headful of recognition? And finally, what lessons on abiding might we learn from our belly buttons? These are a few snapshots from the journey before us. It's going to be a fun adventure?be ready to laugh lots while we mine for rich spiritual truths.
