Christian Reflection and Prayer

Just as gold can’t become gold without going
through a difficult process, so, too, do our
challenges refine us and bring out the value
within us. Don’t be fooled by those who walk
around looking like gold. Many people look
good on the outside, but that doesn’t
necessarily mean that they are good. Most of
the best people in the world have gone through
hard times. They’ve gone through a refinement
process.

So embrace the challenges that come your way.
God is bringing out the gold in you. No matter
how dark and hard life may seem for you today,
God can refine you and make you shine.

With prayers for shalom, peace,

Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein
