I guess I asked for this. Looking back
through my journal I saw that in September I wrote:
“I pray that you would continue to show me things in my life that need to be refined. Bring me through the fire, Lord! I want all that you have for me, nothing held back.”
Five months later my world has been
turned upside down. I have been faced with a tough situation in every
aspect of my life. I wasn't kidding when I prayed for refining, but I
guess I didn't expect God to try to do it all at once. I knew that
starting college would be hard but I couldn't have prepared myself
for this. It is comforting to think that if God is entrusting me with
all of this right now, he will give me strength to walk through it.
He is in control and I can only anticipate with excitement what he is
planning for my future. It's not much fun to be purged in the fire,
but I will come out as refined gold. I will love my God more deeply
for it.
