I was treasure in the dumpster!
I was buried deep!
"You are not trash!" God said.
I saw His hand reaching for me. I was scared to take it at first. I had been in the dumpster so long that I thought I would never be able to get out. So, if anyone asks me if I have ever been homeless...I am certain to tell them, Yes! I had run away from home. Not from my earthly home but from the only home that mattered to me...my Heavenly Home.
I stayed in the dumpster hurt, tired, and very hungry. I was hungry not for physical food but for spiritual food. I was hungry for the Word of God and thirsty for Jesus. Have you ever been homeless? Have you ever been on the streets? I understand. Were you on a physical street homeless or a spiritual street that left you crying for days? Wherever God found you...thank God He did not leave you there! I praise God for His grace and mercy. He has changed my life 100 percent! If God is reaching out to you, please take His hand! Let Him lift you from the dumpster! Precious brother or sister.....You are not trash! The world might have thrown trash on you BUT now rise to the challenge and knock it off! God created you to shine!
From Trash to Treasure,
