waiting

I heard the Spirit of the Living God say, 
My grace has met your hope in the dark place of testing, of pressure and squeezing, and that hope will not be disappointed. That hope is emerging as a diamond, a strong, tangible substance. No one could see this hope being pressed down, tested and put under immense pressure. Some could perceive a testing, but no one could understand the intensity and the pressure and the weight of the testing through which I have put your hope. But still it glistened.
