Purified through burning
Gold bubbles in the pot,
burning torment of mind.
enough is enough.
Anger rages at injustice,
vile hatred spews forth,
it bubbles to the top.
Trouble burns and boils,
and more rage pops.
The impure scraped away.
Darkness glows red,
around the boiling pot.
Trouble burns bright.
Purest gold remains,
after melting in painful flame.
The filthy dross drawn out.
Gold that can be shaped,
from the fires of torment.
The impure now gone.
Bright shining as the sun;
joyful in eternal rays
the gold is pure forever

How Do I Turn To God?
What does that look like? It’s so simple anyone can do it. That is how God designed it. I’m going to avoid magical theological words and just give it straight. As we go through life things happen to us. Good things and bad. We have excitement over good things. We celebrate victories and enjoy time…
