I read, "Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb."   Well, I know all about brides!  I have been a Wedding Consultant for the past 23 years and  have helped more women than I can  remember, with the adornment process to become beautiful brides, starting from their undergarments to their veils.  For many of us this is the only time we adorn ourselves as if we were royalty. 

The thought came to mind; If we, the Church, are to be the Bride of the Lamb, why shouldn't we put as much preparation into getting ready to enter a covenant relationship with our beloved Jesus - the Lamb of God, as we do our earthly spouses?  I would never dream of sending a woman down the aisle in her underwear, so why should we be satisfied showing up to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in only our spiritual underwear?  The question could be;  "What adornments do I need to apply to my life in order to be ready for this union with my Savior and King?" 

Because I am a jewelry junky, I thought it would be "too cool" to have a bracelet made with these stones, so I started the search to find them.  I had no idea what some of the stones were or what they looked like.  But, after several months, I located all the stones and pearls in the size beads I needed.  I made a bracelet for myself and a few more for friends and family.  Soon I was getting phone calls, "Could you make another one for a friend of mine?  Oh, and could you write up something that tells what it means, because I think it's really interesting?"  Well, how could I say no?  I think it's more than interesting, it's "foundational" to becoming the Bride of the Lamb. 

After much study and research, I found that  throughout  history each stone has acquired a meaning or "attribute" and I found it very interesting how many scripture verses there are for each one.  I have listed the stones in order  according to Revelation 21 and have given three scripture references and the attribute for each item.  Of course there are many more scriptures than the three listed, but that's all that fit on the paper bookmark.    

I hope you will take the time to browse our web site and read about the meaning of the stones , the meaning of colors and the poem "The Color of Friendship."   Don't forget to check out the "too cool" jewelry. 

In addition to founding Stones of Glory, I conduct workshops and seminars around the country about the subject of Adorning the Bride of the Lamb, and Understanding What Makes Me Tick, (Understanding Our Personalities) in churches, businesses, colleges and other civic organizations.
