Heat it up and you'll get the liquid form of anything. That's the truth.
Everything has a temperature under which it would give.
Steel,rocks,etc. Everything can be melted under the right temperature
and so are you.
God does the same to us, he subjects us to
situations that would reveal the true content of our character so as to
purify and refine us as a church. The bible says he sits as a refiners
of silver. The essence of the refiners fire is to bring out the best in
us. Most often than not,the problem is not the dissolve-ability of the
object but the ability of the object to blend into the new environment
without loosing its nature. The essence of the trial is to make you
better,not to become what you're being delivered from. Oil in water is
an example. Both liquid can stay in one bowl but oil must be ontop.
That's how we should operate. Everything the world does can be done by
the church for the right reasons.
We should be fluid enough to
standout. Blend out not blend in. Don't loose your identity to any
system other than the Kingdom of God. Be young,stylish,successful and
adventurous but know where to draw the line. If the line becomes blur
then you are sinking already. Be sober and vigilant. Fashion is
good,career is good,family is good but abuse of all things is bad. Paul
said all things are yours,Appolos,life,death etc.... to be contd
