In the Crucible

God is in the white-hot crucible experiences of our lives. There are life experiences that can crush our spirits, overwhelm our emotions, cause our minds to spin, leave our bodies weak o point of collapse, and lead us to cry out, "Lord, I don't know if I can handle this." Such experiences can be compared to being in a crucible-a vessel that can withstand the high temperatures needed to melt metal without affecting the essence of the metal. The crucible is the image used in Scripture to describe the spiritual formation work God is doing in our lives. We are not alone in the crucible. God is with us in the midst of it, sustaining us! In the Crucible is a journey through such an experience. Walk with the author and see how you too can "see" God in the midst of your hard times and experience the steadfast heart He give us to sustain you. In the Crucible is "a cane" that will help you keep your balance when you wonder how you can continue? (from the Forward by Haddon Robinson.)
