Tonight, during girl’s mediation, she thought back on a quote that has meant good things for her in the past.
"How will you become a clear mirror if you resent being polished?" –Rumi
Each act, or omission of a certain act, is a form of polishing done by the Owner to His property. A girl really likes this quote because once the polishing is complete, He can better see His image in her. . . . Isn’t that what we, as slaves, want? To become perfect likeness of our Owner? Being able to represent His mastery to the world, a willing slave eager to be pleasing, drinking in His strength, soaking in His desires, longing to meet each need.
Polishing hurts. . . Buffing out scratches, scrubbing off debris, and don’t forget the stench of the polish. . . . All to become a better reflection of Him.
Yes, girl enjoys the ‘good times’ with Him, but still desires Him to polish His girl. . . until she becomes what He desires. :)
