My Journey
The process of purification was never said to be an easy one. It is a process which takes time and work. To purify silver the Silversmith holds the metal over an intense fire. He waits as the impurities melt off. Once the Silversmiths reflection is visible in the silver he knows it is finished. If he leaves it in the fire for too long the silver will be destroyed.
I have often heard of this process compared to the process that we as Christians go through. God purifies us through trials and fires. It will be an ongoing process that will only be done when we are in Heaven with him. As we are purified He shines through us. We must have faith that God is in complete control.
Proverbs 25:4
"Remove the dross from the silver, and out comes material for the silversmith"
Romans 5: 1-5
"1Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. 3Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us."
