Refiner’s Fire

by Vonette Bright
____________________________________________________________

Many years ago, a few women met to read scriptures.
They came upon Malachi 3:3:
It says, “He will sit like a refiner of silver, burning away the dross.�

FireSo one woman decided to view for herself the process of purifying precious metals.
She wanted to see how it was like God’s love for us.

Well, the silversmith sat, just as the scriptures indicated.
He kept his eye fixed on the furnace, watching the impurities burn away.

Dear one, can you picture that?
God must purify you to burn away the garbage in your life, but won’t go beyond what you can bear.

Then, the man said the process wasn’t complete until he could see his own image reflected in the silver.
And that’s the way it is with God in your life too!
