Sugilite- Guardian Stone of Fulfillment

 

Matthew 25:14-28, “For the kingdom of heaven is like a man traveling to a far country, who called his own servants and delivered his goods to them. And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey.

Then he who had received the five talents went and traded with them and made another five talents. And likewise, he who had received two gained two more also. But he who had received one went and dug in the ground and hid his lord’s money. After a long time, the lord of those servants came and settled accounts with them.

So, he who had received five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, ‘Lord, you delivered to me five talents; look, I have gained five more talents besides them.’ His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

He also who had received two talents came and said, ‘Lord, you delivered to me two talents; look, I have gained two more talents besides them.’ His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

Then he who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Lord, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed. And I was afraid and went and hid your talent in the ground. Look, there you have what is yours.’

But his lord answered and said to him, ‘You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed. So, you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest. So, take the talent from him and give it to him who has ten talents.”

Matthew 25:29-30, ‘For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away. And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’

Sugilite- Guardian Stone of Fulfillment. The 60th and final step on this spiritual page. It is a powerful reminder of God’s promises and the importance of fulfilling them in order to soar free in him. Sugilite encourages those on their dedicated path to serve others by guiding them through difficult times and giving them strength to do so with grace and humility. As God says in his Word, “Well done, my good and faithful servant…now keep serving others in the power of the Holy Spirit in Christ Jesus!”

This final stone serves as a reminder that we must never forget what God has promised us, no matter how challenging it may seem. With its deep purple hue and soulful composition, Sugilite serves as both an aide-memoire that God’s promises will be fulfilled, as well as inspiration for us to strive towards our divine mandate from Him by helping those around us.

1 Corinthians 7:17-24, “But as God has distributed to each one, as the Lord has called each one, so let him walk. And so, I ordain in all the churches. Was anyone called while circumcised? Let him not become uncircumcised. Was anyone called while uncircumcised? Let him not be circumcised. Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing, but keeping the commandments of God is what matters. Let each one remains in the same calling in which he was called.

“Were you called while a slave? Do not be concerned about it; but if you can be made free, rather use it. For he who is called in the Lord while a slave is the Lord’s freedman. Likewise, he who is called while free is Christ’s slave. You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of men. Brethren, let each one remains with God in that state in which he was called.”

Rephrased, “According to God’s plan, each one should pursue their calling. As such, this is my ordination for all churches: those who have been called and are circumcised must remain so, and those who have been called while uncircumcised must not be circumcised.”

“Ultimately, whether someone is circumcised or not doesn’t really matter. What’s important is that we follow God’s commands and stay true to our chosen path. If you were called to do something while enslaved, don’t worry about it; if you can be freed, seize the opportunity.”

“Regardless of whether you’re a free man or a slave, everyone is called in the Lord and thus, equally free in Christ. Remember that you are bought with a price and should not become slaves to other people. It is important for each one of us to remain faithful to God in whichever station we have been called.”

At last, you have achieved your purpose in this life. And God is affirming your hard work by saying ‘Well done, my good and faithful servant.’ With this thought in mind, Sugilite- Guardian Stone of Fulfillment serves as a reminder that you must continue to serve and teach by following the path of Jesus Christ.

Through continued service and prayer, we can fulfill our true calling and destiny in life while close to God’s love. The Sugilite stone symbolizes your journey towards completion through faith so that you can carry with it the energy that brings ultimate fulfillment and peace.

James 1:2-8, “My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.”

“But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.”

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. Have faith without wavering, for doubt is like a stormy sea that can push you around in every direction. Unbelieving people do not receive anything from Him – they must have an unwavering mindset that is stable in all their decisions.

Hebrews 6:9-12, “But, beloved, we are confident of better things concerning you, yes, things that accompany salvation, though we speak in this manner. For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister. And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end, that you do not become sluggish but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.”

After a long and arduous journey, you have finally made it to the very last step on your path to fulfillment. With this, God tells you that you have been a faithful and good servant. He reminds you that your life is now complete – but this doesn’t mean that this journey comes to an end here.

Instead, all the steps prior as well as God’s grace have equipped you in such a way that now it’s time for you to keep serving and teaching those around you in the same manner. The Sugilite – Guardian Stone of Fulfillment is symbolic of this calling – a reminder of God’s promises, and of our power to help others with love and humility by putting all that we’ve learned into practice.

Romans 5:1-5 “Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope. Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.”

After every difficult journey, finally you made it to the last step. Through this journey with Jesus Christ, you have reached fulfillment and now God is saying “well done, my good and faithful servant”. You already know what your life’s purpose and calling are – to serve and teach the love of God through your life and living in a way that leads other into the loving arm of Jesus Christ and the salvation He provided through mercy and grace of God and the Holy Spirit.

However, now that you have made it this far, it’s time to start living our life according to these values and principles – with God’s guidance beside us all the way. Sugilite is known as a guardian stone which is believed to give us courage in facing our life-challenges on this path of destiny. So, take courage in your faith knowing that God is always with you despite any obstacles which lay ahead.

Ephesians 3:14-21, “For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.”

“Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.”
