Home Coming


I asked for water,
HE gave me an Ocean!

I asked for flowers,
HE gave me a Garden!

I asked for a friend,
HE gave me YOU…!

 If GOD brings
you to it,

HE will bring
you through it!

Malachi 3:3 says:

"HE will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver." He first LOVED us!

This verse puzzled some women in a Bible study and they
wondered what this statement meant about the character of God.
One of the women offered to find out the process of refining silver
and get back to the group at their next Bible study. That week
the women called a silversmith and made an appointment to watch
him at work.  She didn't mention anything about the reason for her
interest beyond her curiosity about the process of refining sliver.

 As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of sliver over the
fire and let it heat up!  He explained that in refining silver, one needed
to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were the
hottest as to burn away all the impurities. The woman thought
about God holding us in such a spot; then she thought again about
the verse that says:  "HE will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver."

She asked the silversmith if it was true that he had to sit there in front
of the fire the whole time the silver was being refined. The man answered
yes, he not only had to sit there holding the silver, but he had to keep his
eyes on the silver the entire time it was in the fire. If the silver was left a
moment too long in the flames, it would be destroyed.

 The woman was silent for a moment. Then she asked the silversmith,
"How do you know when the silver is fully Refined?"
He smiled at her  and answered,
"Oh that's easy, when I can see my image in it"
