Burn

If this is fire, let me burn. Trial and testing isn't fun. I feel like I've been going through a lot of that lately, and failing. God doesn't ever work in the ways I expect. That's awesome. I love how He blows me away. I know He's working, yet I really wonder where He's going with this. All I can see is how much this hurts right now. The sermon I heard this Sunday talked about how things are never what they seem. That really hit me where I needed it. Because I can't see the big picture. I'm seeing an ice cube where God is seeing a glacier. I don't know the why. I just have to trust that my circumstances are working for His glory. I want to be poured out, a sacrifice for His glory. It scares me to write that. God's way isn't the comfortable way. But if I have to go through the fire to be purified for Him, I want that. If this is fire, let me burn.
