Description

Hardship and discipline are not always punishment for past mistakes. It could be preparation for where you are going, but to get to that place, refinement is needed. The fullness of your true character is never on display until you face adversity and problems. The process to purfiy gold involves increase the heat so that all the hidden impurities rise to the surface and are exposed. If fire is needed to bring out the impurities of gold, if pressure is needed to create diamonds and if fertilizer is needed to produce a great harvest, then so too are times of heat and high pressure needed to develop and transform you into the person God has pre-destined you to be. He has embedded greatness on the inside of you and will take you along a path to unearth it. Dear friends, don't be surprised at the fiery trials you are going through, as if something strange were happening to you. Instead, be very glad - for these trials make you partners with Christ in His suffering, so that you will have the wonderful joy of seeing His glory when it is revealed to all the world. (1 Peter 4:12 - 13). God, the greatest investor and strategist, is fully interested in getting a return on what He has deposited in you. He, like any wise investor, protects His assets and investments so sometimes that means rearranging assets or splitting them to fortify the investments. As an investor, He closely monitors their investments to make sure it will increase and produce dividends. (I will guide you with My eye on you - Psalm 32:8).
