Gold

Job 23:10 KJV
But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

Precious are the trials of life that bring us forth as gold. What blessings we have forfeited in our spiritual lives because we have avoided the way of trials. The life of ease and comfort suits our flesh but it does nothing for the soul. While seeking fatness and the fruits of delight in the fleshly realm we have starved our souls nearly to death.

Praise God that He brings us to the places of trial, even when we avoid them. He knows the way we take and He is capable of leading us, even in that way, to the place of trial. And leading us in that way, we may have the assurance we will come out of it as gold.
