It takes a lot of heat to make a good sword.
When I wrote this two years ago, I didn’t know there was more hard testing coming my way. And not just for me!
We can take a lot of hard knocks in just two years, can’t we? We can hardly help wondering, though, why God does not ease up on us.
St. Paul assures us that it will all be very well worth it, more than we can imagine. Can we believe a man who, for his faith, was beaten, stoned, abused, reviled–and even shipwrecked? I think we can.
It’s just hard to do, sometimes.
