Forged Steel
By Rev. Dean Beaty 1/23/11
I Peter 1:7 “That the trial of your faith, being much
more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it
be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and
honor and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:” (KJV)

Like forming steel with fire and cold
Thou hast formed me in Thy mold.
For iron and carbon to be fused,
Sometimes the hammer must be used.

Help me to know that in Thy care
Thou hast led me everywhere.
There may be trials along the way
But Thou art with me every day.

As Christ was led to the wilderness,
So we are led that Thou might bless.
The Spirit knows just where to lead
And when to fast and when to feed.

The heat and hammer have their place
To bring us to His place of grace.
Help me Lord to yield to Thee,
That Thou wilt gain the victory.

Malachi 3:2-3 “But who may abide the day of his coming? and who
shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like
fullers' soap: And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he
shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that
they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness.”(KJV)
