pure as gold.

so you all know God's really had me laying stuff down recently. i wont go into details of all that I've been working on, but just know one thing: the things i've been laying down are important to me. still.

This morning i got up. Last night i had an awesome time with Him all alone in my room..
and He said this to me, first thing: "Lay down your precious possessions so that i can refine them and make them pure to give to you."
All He wants from me is to lay down what's important to me, have loose hands and allow Him to do what He wants with it, and He will make it CLEAN for me. Because He wants to give me good gifts, and good gifts are pure gifts. So really, taking my hands off of what i've got is just temporary! 'cause He's going to give it right back, just cleaner and prettier and better.

it's like when you find a bit of gold in the ground. at first it looks like a lot, but it's not clean.
then when you boil it down and burn all the impurities out of it, it may be "less", but it's worth more because it's PURE gold.
well, I'd rather take the little bit of pure gold than a lot of impure gold. and God knows that, so that's what He's giving me. He's so good to me.
