Summary

Scripture Luke 12:49 (NIV) "I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!" Refrain The fire that refines me is taking me somewhere good. Quote Richard Rohr, from The Universal Christ "I am afraid many of us have failed to honor God's always unfolding future and the process of getting there, which usually includes some form of dying to the old. In practical effect, we end up resisting and opposing the very thing we want. The great irony is that we have often done this in the name of praying to God, as though God would protect us from the very process that refines us!" Hosted on Acast.
