Humble Servant of All
I find it interesting that our faith is said to be much more precious than gold. The world finds gold to be a very precious substance, and many have lost their lives in order to attain it's wealth and riches. Gold is refined through a process of burning….fire and heat burn out all of the impurities, and then the pure gold is revealed. This "burning away" of the impurites is a long and arduous process, requiring many steps and very high heat. The gold goes from a solid state to a molten state to a liquid state. After it is purified, and has cooled down, it is much too soft to be used, and must be mixed with other metals in order to create a beautiful work of art in it's final state. Junko, I believe you are being purified into a fine work of art, a fine and priceless tool for the Lord. I don't know how this is all going to play out, but I beg of you....don't give up. God has something for you, he has a future and use for you that will probably surpass all expectations and dreams you have ever had. Junko Yamada, you are a child of God, your future is being planned out right now, you are being tried and purified into something the Lord will use for many years to come, something this valuable doesn't happen in months and sometimes in years but I believe the Lord knows what you can handle and he says he won't give you anything you can't handle. Stay steady Junko, stay strong, and stay the course my sister in Christ, God loves you, we love you, and I love you. God bless you.
