Faith Tested by Trials
Have you ever seen a blacksmith work with a piece of iron? He holds
it in the fire to soften it and make it pliable. That is exactly why God
permits the testing of your faith by temptations and trials. He wants you
to acquire patience, to acquire pliability. If you and I are constantly
out of the fire of affliction, we become stiff and useless. God wants to
reshape us according to His image, for in the fall of Adam we lost our
divine shape, our divine image.
