Clarity

Day 1 – Clarity

The desire for clarity in life is common. We want to know what to do, what’s next, and how to move forward in ways that feel purposeful and successful. As believers in Jesus Christ, we desire our clarity to come from Him.

So what happens when we aren’t clear about what to do—or what’s next?

Psalm 145:17–20 reminds us that the Lord is close to all who call on Him and that He hears the desires of those who fear (revere) Him. When we seek clarity, God meets us in our uncertainty—not always with immediate answers, but with His presence and guidance as we remain close and obedient to Him.

Gems from the Gem Takeaway

While eye-clean clarity (lacking inclusions visible to the naked eye) is often considered most valuable in amethyst, certain inclusions—such as “tiger stripes,” “zebra striping,” or internal “phantom” crystal formations—can actually increase a stone’s value to collectors.

In gemstones, an occasional lack of clarity can result in something uniquely beautiful and deeply valuable.
