I want to be a gold digger.
Not like … a real digger of gold, with a lamp on my head and a pick in my hand … though, maybe …
In my relationships, I want to seek the gold, the good in people. I want to dig further into them, to see the nuggets of the purest gold … that which has been refined through a life of both faithfulness and struggle.
This does not come natural, though. It requires intentional effort, for I am a selfish person, who is titillated by gossip and conspiracy-theories.
Thus, Proverbs 11:27,
anyone can find the dirt
in someone,
be the one who finds
GOLD
Simple to say … not so simple to do.
But, I think that, if we make it a focus, if we are intentional about where we allow our minds, our thoughts about others to go … in other words, if we become gold diggers … we will reap priceless riches.
