testing and trials cleanse and prefect the soul

Mirror of the Soul

Through the trials and temptations
every Christian must surely go.
Leaving questioning anticipations
in the 'God opened eyes' will show.

Like Silver that is now being refined
the Skimming away of sinful dross
From the heat of trials of every kind,
To a Christian, oh,How great the cost.

Mirror-Silver This can only be true
The Christian can have not one flaw
Reflection that's seen by me, by you.
As you submit to God's natural-law,

Silver's heated then it's skimmed
Then came the 'heat' on you, again
purity reflects 'tis never dimmed
as the sinners Jesus frees of sin.

Finally, God knows 'time’ is right
His own eyes will let others know
When the old-self's dead, crucified
With a reflection of Jesus to show

Through temptation and each trial
burns away sin so flaws are gone,
Old-Self grows less, after a while
One more image of Jesus, is shown.

Just try to imagine our Father-God
looks in the cubicle you're now in
cleaning away all dross as you trod
until your living, has NO-MORE-SIN.

"But heating HURTS!" A Christian cries
until we stand as pure crystal gleams.
Reflects Jesus in His all-seeing-Eyes,
like Mirror-Silver our soul He cleans...
