REFINING: The Lord is refining you for glory - 1 Peter 4:13

The word of hope for today about The Lord is refining you for glory


Friends, when life gets really difficult, don’t jump to the conclusion that God isn’t on the job. Instead, be glad that you are in the very thick of what Christ experienced. This is a spiritual refining process, with glory just around the corner. 1 Peter 4:12-13 MSG


Quote: "The purpose of God’s refining in your life is to bring out the gold in your life and prepare you for eternal glory." - Hector Perez


Praise & Prayer to be refined 

I praise You, Holy Father, for Your hands of compassion that shape my life. Although I may not understand why I must go through certain hardships that You permit me to encounter, I believe You utilize them as a refining process to bring out the best of Jesus' character in me. I ask You to please remove from my life of the dross behaviors and poisonous thinking that cause misery to myself or others. Please lead me, Holy Spirit, to someone today who is facing a difficult situation and thinks God is unattentive to their personal needs. Help me be a channel of encouragement as I listen and share this wonderful truth about God's refining process that He uses to prepare us for eternal glory. I pray for their restoration in Jesus' mighty name.
