Whispers of His Power - 30 Days of InspirationExemplo

### God's Furnace When a piece of steel has been subjected to such stress that it has lost its power to recover its elasticity, it is said to be distorted. But it can be made right again. It is put in the furnace so it recovers what it had lost. Perhaps we have given way under the great stress of temptation and become “distorted.” Perhaps we have lost hope of ever recovering. “I am like this now; I shall always be like this.” Are we willing to be put into any furnace of God’s choosing if we may be made fit for His use? We cannot choose our furnace. Sometimes, it is the furnace of the affliction of Isaiah 48:10. But always, there is hope. "Cannot I do with you as this potter?" asks the Lord. We are in His hand, and no one can snatch us from His grasp. Our dear Lord says, "My Father, which gave them Me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of My Father’s hand" (John 10:29).
