God bless you for this!!! I am going through the Refiner's Fire at nearly 72, not fun, not easy and very lonely at times, where it feels Papa God is my only Friend. I take it one minute, one hour, one day and repeat, even through a sea of tears. This place is temporary, God and His Son are Eternal and I get to spend Eternity with Them when I am called Home!!! Wendy
Thank you for sharing ❤️ the refine is hard and often long and yes, extremely lonely. Isn’t it amazing though that we know that without God it would be too hard to bear. Keep going beautiful 🥰
I will, I most certainly will! As I said, this place is temporary. Heaven is Eternal and there, we will find honorable contributions we can make, including work, fellowship with God, His Son and all the saints and Angels who stayed with God, and joyful family forever! What a wonderful place! Worth the struggle to get there. Not on our own strength...but the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus and the mercy of His Papa God. Blessings to each of us as we labor toward that goal.
I went through a refining last year becoming homeless with my daughter and 5 grandchildren. Me? The person with the Victorian home of 12 rooms+ 22 windows, the better than this girl, sleeping in my car for 5 months, and actually becoming grateful for a morning shower in the one motel room. God has a way of humbling us in just the right way. Looking back, I came to love my cotton quilts and pillows in my car and the moon roof to see the stars, and the closeness to The Father. And I learned I'm not the only deer in the forest. 🌼 I really enjoy reading your writings. I hear faith. Thank you 🤗
Wow your story just spoke right to my heart ❤️ what a beautiful way to praise God for His goodness even in the hardest season of your life. This is what gratitude is, even in the refine. ❤️❤️❤️
So good, and so full of topics lovely and deep and ... and ... (sorry, still on that first coffee in the morning, waaaaay over here on other side of planet)but just a quick thank you, Lovely one; 🙏☕️
Since November last year, the Lord has been hard at work in my life. I'm not sure if I'm still buried or if I'm starting to let some wee little wroots grow, maybe even peaking trough the soil to see the light. Sometimes it feels like yes finally there ís light and suddenly there I'm back in the dark being pulled down.
Boy does the enemy attack at those moments. This post really encouraged me and I just want to say thank you. To know you are not alone in this feeling. Yes I know I'm never alone, the Lord has me in the palm of His hand, but still it helps.
Love the video aswell, with the little extra on Jeremiah! Thank you. ♥️
Oh, I am hearing you!!!! I still have those days lovely, where it feels like I’ve stepped backwards. But I remind myself that life is a dance and we’re constantly moving back and forward. Keep going ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh Sarah it’s so lovely to see your face and hear your voice. You are a great encouragement to me. You lead me closer to God. Thanks for the Jeremiah verse 🙏🦋

Reminds of an article title I read once called, "Pruned With a Chainsaw." That's me, I thought.
Great post!
Oh I love that title! ❤️❤️❤️
This touched me deeply!
That blesses me so much to hear ❤️

Beautiful. This comes right as I'm thinking about pruning my actual fruit trees - God's timing is funny and his metaphors are spot on! Thank you!
That’s fantastic to hear! He’s always so spot on ❤️❤️❤️
