When we choose to follow the Jesus Way, we realize that God pervades our life every moment. Everything that happens in our lives has a purpose, a lesson to be learned, an application to our spiritual life.
Think about a snapshot of something that happened to you today. Write it down in a few short sentences. Then think about its application to your spiritual growth. Your inspiration can come from anything: driving to work, using your cell phone, blowing bubbles with your children, dancing, a magazine article, a load of laundry, cleaning the refrigerator, a migraine headache, a disease.....good or bad......what does God want you to learn from these situations that will help you to grow spiritually? How is He refining you today?
Zech 13:9
9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God.
KJV
Going through fire takes the impurities out of us, and makes us more like Jesus. Count it gain if, in your joys or in your sufferings, you learn to walk closer to Him.
