it takes intense heat to purify gold and silver. similarly. it often take the heat of the trials for us, as a Christian to be purified. God shows us what is in us and clears out anything that gets in the way of complete trust in Him. on 1 peter 1:7, peter said that "these trials are only to test your faith, to show that it is strong and pure. it's being tested and as fire test and purifies gold - and your faith is far more important and precious to God than mere gold"
therefore, when tough times come you way, knowing that God want to use them to refine your faith and purify my heart.
proverbs 17:3 - Fire tests the purity of silver and gold, but the Lord tests the heart.
seek opportunities in every trials that you faced. you would either raise up and take up the challenge or just let yourself to be overcame by the circumstances.
