"A skilled refiner is both sensitive and patient. He is sensitive to how much heat is needed for the process, and will patiently remove each impurity. The result is a mirrorlike quality to the surface of the molten metal that effectively reflects the face of the refiner himself."
I forget all the time that all this pain is part of making me look more and more like His child. If I could remember, couldn't I then rejoice at the pain??
Lord,
I love you. Wherever your refining fire needs to be applied, I want you to burn away the dross. Take out anything that cheapens the treasured quality of your work in me. Dear Savior, don't stop until your image can be seen in me!
