We thank You that Your refining work is not punishment, but preparation, for scripture reminds us in Malachi that You refine Your people like silver, purifying us for a greater purpose. May we submit to Your gentle refining, allowing You to remove whatever does not belong, even when the process feels uncomfortable, that we may be shaped into instruments of peace, faith, and lasting joy. May the refining fire ignite clarity, not fear, as we trust in Your loving hands. Farther, we ask You to cleanse our hearts of distractions, that our spiritual sensitivity may be sharpened, as Jesus taught in Luke that one thing is needed - Your presence. Strip away the noise that vies for our devotion, and teach us to listen again, that our hearts may be attentive and responsive to Your voice, recognizing it with ease. In Jesus name Amen
